Also known in its native home of Mexico as “Salsa Bandera” (after the red, green, and white of the Mexican flag), pico de gallo is an icon in its own right: a perennial favorite for parties, a necessary accessory to nachos, and an absolute essential for any taco Tuesday (or taco any-other-day-of-the-week, for that matter.) Trader Joe’s Mild Pico De Gallo is an edible tribute to this scion of salsas, an easy option for when you need fresh pico de gallo, but don’t quite have the time for all that chopping.

Made in the classic style using diced tomatoes, onions, jalapeños, cilantro, and lemon juice, our Pico De Gallo isn’t just an ideal companion to tortilla chips, it’s also an excellent (and easy) recipe enhancer. Looking to spice up a bit of pan-fried fish? A layer of chunky Pico De Gallo will add just the right amount of zest. Making a quick Tex-Mex queso? Simply add a tub of Trader Joe’s Mild Pico De Gallo to a skillet of melted cheese and milk, and you’re there, compadre. Scrambled eggs, omelets, breakfast burritos – pretty much any savory breakfast you can name could do with a little Pico De Gallo, too.
