This simple fresh salsa goes my many different names including salsa fresca and pillo de gallo. It's a delicious basic condiment that goes well with just about everything. You can serve it with tacos, tostadas or quesadillas of course. And it's also great as a topping for grilled fish, chicken or shrimp. I also love it on top of scrambled eggs.

Cover and let stand for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors blend. Give it a stir, taste and adjust the seasonings before serving.
This fresh tomato salsa recipe can be stored covered in the refrigerator and is best if used within 1 to 2 days of making.
