The Pico de Gallo Salad 🍅 You Need This Weekend!

Published 2 days ago • 1 min read

​

Hey friends❣️

This started as a “use what’s in the fridge” moment, and now it’s officially my favorite thing to eat with everything.

​Pico de Gallo Salad​

I had a bunch of pretty heirloom cherry tomatoes on the counter, so I chopped them up and turned my usual pico into more of a salad situation ~ and now I can’t stop making it.

what tastes good with pico de gallo salad

Tacos Tacos Tacos!

Burgers and Hot Dogs of all kinds ~ how about with my Perfect Salmon Burgers, my Sheet Pan Smashburgers or with my Tropical Hot Dog Bar!

Steak ~ how about brightening up a Ribeye Steak or Strip Steak. I'd love it with Steak Frites with Parmesan Butter.

Serve with your Grilled Whole Chicken.

EXCELLENT! Be sure to use a wine you would drink. This is not only amazing over a baked brie, on crackers but as a finishing glaze for a pork roast, ham, lamb and whisked into olive oil for a quick salad dressing. THANK YOU and well done!

I love to make delicious food, photograph it, and write about it, but mostly, I just love to EAT. Isn’t that what it’s all about? My recipes are bold and vibrant, but totally approachable ~ and my philosophy? We should all have the tools to feed ourselves well, and the confidence to cut loose a little in the kitchen. Food should be fun!

Hey friends❣️ May cooking is kind of summer aspirational ~ the weather’s warming up, fruit’s coming into season, and we’re all easing into lighter, simpler meals.

Hey friends❣️ Spring marches on, I can't believe it's almost May!! Mex and Tex Mex Recipes for Cinco de Mayo I love it when Cinco de Mayo comes around because it's a fun reminder to make some of my favorite foods.
