**Cabbage Pico de Gallo: A Refreshing Twist on the Classic Salsa**
Pico de gallo is a vibrant and refreshing salsa that typically combines chopped tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and jalapeños. However, this recipe offers a unique twist on the classic by incorporating cabbage, adding an extra layer of texture and flavor. The cabbage adds a delightful crunch and a slightly sweet flavor that perfectly complements the tangy tomatoes and the spicy jalapeños. This salsa is incredibly versatile and can be used as a topping for tacos, burritos, or nachos, or as a dip for chips and vegetables. It's also a great way to add a pop of color and flavor to grilled meats, fish, or salads. The article provides three variations of this recipe: a classic version, a spicy version for those who love a little heat, and a mild version for those who prefer a milder salsa. Each variation offers a unique flavor profile, ensuring that there's something for everyone to enjoy.

PICO DE GALLO WITH CABBAGE (MEXICAN COLESLAW)
It took a while to get this perfected so it tastes just like our favorite Mexican restaurant. This is a great change up to the ordinary chips and salsa. It goes great with chips or as a quesadilla topping. It's different from your typical Mexican fare, but it is fantastic. This is a pretty forgiving recipe and you can adjust ingredients to your liking. You can add more cilantro, onion or jalapeno depending on your tastes. You can eat this right away but it is best after you have given the flavors an hour or two to blend. For those that don't like it too hot, La Costena® brand makes a great pickled jalapeno that has lots of flavor and not too much heat.

SCOTT'S PICO DE GALLO
Fresh mild salsa. The flavor is best after it sits for a while as the lime juice will mellow out the flavor of the onion and the salt will bring the juices out of the tomato. If you want to make it fast, chop everything in a food processor, but you will not get the same texture as hand-chopped salsa. Also, if you want it spicy add a little chopped jalapeno. Last, you can use the juice from this pico de gallo to make a quick guacamole, just add some of the pico de gallo juice to the avocados, some extra salt, a little mayo, and your guacamole is ready!
