Pico de Gallo
Many store-bought salsas contain added sugar or other ingredients you don’t need or want. While you can often find fresh pico de gallo that’s healthy, salsa is very quick and easy to make at a fraction of the cost! Using a food processor will yield a smoother texture than pictured, but it is faster than chopping by hand!
