Fruit-Free Pico De Gallo!

Fruit free salsa is HARD to come by and it’s usually just a little lime juice that stands between the fruit-intolerant and a delicious, fresh and healthy topping or snack. Fortunately for all it’s also very easy to make fresh salsa at home and heading into summer all the best and freshest ingredients will be available!            Ingredients for fruit free salsa 1-2 lbs (2-3 cups) Tomato, chopped 1 Jalapeno, diced (optional – use to taste. It’s plenty delicious without Jalapeno if you aren’t a fan of heat.) ¾ Cup Red Onion, finely chopped 2 Tablespoons Cilantro or Parsley, finely minced 1 clove Garlic, minced (optional).
