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.
