Healthy kid's recipe - Simple tomato salsa

Refreshing fruit wands

Well, another successful cooking class was had in Finchley. Today on the menu were fruit wands, fruit salad that ended up on sticks so the children could take the fruit home with them to share with their families and tomato salsa.

We ventured out into my front garden and I got the children to smell a variety of herbs - thyme, rosemary, mint and oregano.

A little salt and pepper

Method:

1. Chop the tomatoes into small cubes
2. Pour over the vinegar and oil and add the seasoning (salt and pepper) to taste

Top tip: this can also be used as the topping for bruschetta. You could substitute the oregano for thyme, parsley or basil leaves.
