Summer foods and drinks: Pico de Gallo
On Delish.com, I've been reading about summer recipies and they have one for Pico de Gallo. Pico de Gallo is a fresh salsa that may make you think twice about buying the prepackaged salsas. You can find the recipe here.
For those wanting some more "bite" to it, replace red onion with white, yellow onions and chop a little fresh or pickled jalapenos and add them to the mix. (fresh is hotter than the pickled) It can go on or with almost anything. I've personally had this in an omlete in the morning with some cheddar cheese. It goes great with chips during a game and I loved it on salmon steaks with a pat of garlic butter and spicy remoulade which you can find at your local grocer or make yourself.
According to the website, the calorie count is 11 calories per serving. 1 cup is a serving. The food pyriamid says 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day and the world cup is this weekend. Replace your french onion dip with this and eat healthier. I bet there won't be any complaints.
