Summer is here and we have rolled out our new menu featuring our Summer Fruit Pico de Gallos. There is nothing better to me than a grilled Meat or Seafood with a fresh fruit Pico de Gallo.

Pico de Gallo like Chutney or Relish is a side accompaniment to complement the Main dish. A way healthier alternative to Butter, Cream or Gravy which dominates the main in so many other types of cuisines. Textures and colors of the Pico de Gallo are so inviting and flavorful and with our beautiful summer fruits who can resist.
When talking Pico de Gallo, you are dealing with 4 main ingredients, Tomato, Onion, Cilantro and Jalapeno. I like to add a clove of minced Garlic and a splash of Rice Vinegar. At Susanna's we accomplish our Fruit Pico de Gallos by eliminating the Tomato and substituting with a Fruit. Wow! What a fabulous combination the Fruit has to the Onion, Cilantro & Jalapeno. For low heat, eliminate all the seeds of the Jalapeno and gradually add seeds for your preferred temperature. Current on Susanna's menu are grilled Salmon Tacos topped with a Strawberry Pico de Gallo, Our Chicken Enchilada stuffed w/ Goat/Jack Cheese and Strawberry topped with a Watermelon Pico de Gallo and Sauteed Shrimp in Orange Liquor Tacos with a Mandarin Orange Pico de Gallo. These Fruit Pico de Gallos also are great with Tortilla Chips, Bagel Chips or Apple slices with Cheese. You could even add a couple of tablespoons of Vegetable oil and toss it on a Salad.

You can use most fruits and it is limited only by your imagination.
