Blue Ribbon Recipe
This pico de gallo recipe will knock your socks off... in more ways than one! We love the delightfully fresh combination of peppers, onion, mango, and pineapple. It packs a real punch, though, so try adjusting the number of jalapenos if you typically like to walk on the milder side. This homemade pico de gallo will be delicious with tortilla chips or served with grilled chicken or fish.
