One of the staples at our house is Pico de Gallo. We put it on eggs, enchiladas, steaks, chicken, basically anything that isn’t moving.
I also use it to make the best guacamole you’ll find anywhere. Now that it’s summer, all of the ingredients are growing in our back yard, so it’s also very economical, but even if you don’t garden the ingredients are economical in the summer.
