  • When selecting tomatoes, look for Roma tomatoes that are firm and have a deep red color.
  • When selecting the watermelon, look for one that is heavy for its size and has a yellow spot on the underside.

  • Substitute tomatoes for cucumber: This substitution will give the dish a refreshing crunch and will help to cool down the spiciness from the jalapeno pepper.
  • Substitute mango for pineapple: This substitution will add a sweet and tart flavor to the dish, which will help to balance out the flavors of the other ingredients.

Fruity Pico de Gallo Replace the tomatoes with 2 cups of diced pineapple and 1 cup of diced peaches. Add 1/4 cup of honey to the lime juice for a hint of sweetness.



Mexican Street Corn: This dish is a great accompaniment to the Pico de Gallo, as the sweet corn pairs nicely with the acidity of the tomatoes, watermelon, and lime juice. It is also a great way to add some crunch to the dish.


Grilled Quesadillas: Grilled quesadillas are a great way to add some more Mexican flavors to the dish. The cheese and vegetables in the quesadillas pair nicely with the flavors of the Mexican Street Corn and Pico de Gallo, and the quesadillas provide a nice crunchy contrast to the other dishes.
