Fresh pico is a one of a kind flavor in my mind that is amazing on the taste buds, rather amazingly simple to put together, and amazingly good for you. (Yes, I’m aware it’s typically paired with chips that knock down the health factor a bit, but there are healthy options there if you so choose…)
Below is the quick and simple recipe that I follow. This is great for eating with chips, on tacos, taco salads, on fish, mixed into rice… the list goes on. It’s just good – simple as that! Enjoy!
