This vibrant pico de gallo verde is a refreshing twist on the classic Mexican salsa, swapping traditional red tomatoes for a crunchy, all-green medley. This vegan dip features a base of crisp cucumber and creamy avocado, uplifted by the citrusy zing of fresh lime and the subtle heat of poblano and jalapeño chillies. The addition of roasted pistachios provides an unexpected but welcome buttery crunch that sets this salsa apart from the store-bought alternatives.
Perfect as a light summer starter or a zesty side dish for a Mexican-inspired spread, this recipe is both healthy and simple to prepare. The combination of cooling cucumber and fragrant mint makes it an ideal accompaniment to spicy grilled dishes or as a topping for tacos. Serve it chilled with a handful of salty tortilla crisps or plantain chips for a nutritious homemade snack that is packed with fresh, seasonal flavour.
