Is there anything that's not made better by sauce or salsa? Such a silly question. Of course not.
Drizzle these over pasta, meats, or veggies. Slather them on sandwiches. Pour them over tacos or nachos or whatever you like. The options are endless.

Salsa Verde & Pico de Gallo
Tomatillos and poblano peppers are charred under high heat until smoky and tender, then cooked with garlic, cumin and lime for a concentrated, bright and tangy, slightly spicy tomatillo sauce that does triple duty as a sauce, marinade, or salsa verde.
No matter what you're making Pico de Gallo for, you're either going to want to hide it or make extra because this fresh salsa is waaaaaaay too easy to snack on.
