Salsa lovers all have personal preferences.
Some like chunks of tomatoes and onions, others a puree. Some like it hot and some like it mild.
I’m somewhere in between. I’d like a little spice, but not too much. Enough texture to taste each bit, but not chunky.
So we’ll just call this my personal goldilocks of salsas. You may like it a little hotter, a little chunkier or with a specific pepper. Feel free to mix it up.
While the northeast is doused in snow and ice, this pocket of the southwest has been showered in sunlight. Yes, 80-degree weather in the middle of February. Life ain’t bad.
And that means a respite from hearty soups, tummy-warming pasta and layered casseroles.
I’ve had the Pioneer Woman watermelon pico de gallo recipe saved for months. Just haven’t felt it was the right time to make it. Plus, I knew I wanted to modify it a bit to make it toddler-worthy (no peppers).
While this one is both child-safe without spice and it gives a taste of the islands, with the adding of some orange and pineapple.
