What To Use It On
There was a day that I was going on this health kick and I bought a bunch of stuff to make a salad. I got sick of it pretty quick because I am NOT a salad girly. So, in an effort to switch it up, I decided to use the lettuce for some lettuce wrap tacos. I wanted some pico de gallo to go with my tacos but I did not have any cilantro or parsley, but I did have a cucumber. So, that is how this concoction came about.
Perhaps there is more you can use it on, heck, I could eat it alone as a little salad too. I don’t know if this is considered a pico or a salsa, but it goes fantastic on tacos, tostadas, chicken, etc.
