Simple Pico de Gallo (FTDI)
Salsa is FTDI in moderation and that means store bought or homemade, red or green, blended or pico de gallo style. This means that tomato is going to OKAY in this recipe even though you don't see tomato listed on our FTDI food list.....because it's used to make SALSA. Check your Condiments and Drinks page in your FTDI Bible to see it listed there so you know that this statement is TRUE! This is how I make a quick and simple pico de gallo! Great on FTDI Tacos, fish, in FTDI meatballs, in FTDI meatloaf, in FTDI Burgers, etc.
