About Pico

Pico de gallo, also known as salsa fresca, is a fresh, vibrant condiment rooted in Mexican cuisine. Made from simple ingredients—diced tomatoes, onions, fresh cilantro, jalapeños, lime juice, and a pinch of salt—it packs bold flavors without added fats or sugars. Rich in vitamins A and C, thanks to the tomatoes and lime juice, it supports immune health and skin vitality. Cilantro contributes antioxidants, while jalapeños can bring a metabolism-boosting kick. Naturally low in calories, pico de gallo makes a healthy addition to dishes like tacos, grilled meats, or salads. However, those watching sodium intake should moderate use, as recipes often include salt. This colorful mix highlights the value of whole, fresh foods, complementing a balanced diet with its minimal processing and maximum taste.
