Pecan-Crusted Turkey Tenderloin with Grilled Peach Salsa

Here we top pecan-crusted turkey cutlets with a mildly spicy grilled peach salsa. It's better to prepare your own turkey cutlets from a whole tenderloin than buy them precut. The precut ones often vary in size and shape, leading to different cooking times. You can also use 4 small boneless, skinless chicken breasts in place of the turkey tenderloin.

Summer peaches are the essence of fresh, healthy and delicious. Plus, peaches are low in calories (about 60 each), contain no sodium or cholesterol, and offer a nice helping of vitamins and antioxidants, which are thought to protect the body from aging, heart disease and some cancers.

Toss some in your morning yogurt or breakfast cereal, bake some into a pie or tart, experiment with savory recipes for main dishes or sides, or merely eat them on the go, juice running down your chin and, without a doubt, a smile on your face.
