I spend 7 hours today serving this delicious salad at a fiesta fundraiser at my daughter's school here in California. Pico de Gallo is usually known as a type of salsa, but in this case, it is a popular fruit salad spiced with a red chili powder that is popular in Mexico. Sounds odd, but it's a delicious and addictive combination. You dice the fresh fruits into chunk size pieces and mix them together in any combination you like. Today, we combined watermelon, mango, pineapple, cucumber and jicama. I will list popular fruits and veggies that can go in it and you can customize your mix.

Everyone loved this. The spicy and salty taste of the pico de gallo really goes with the sweetness of the fruit. I let people sprinkle on how much they wanted. I also used the juice of limes instead of lemons to toss the fruit in. Thanks for sharing.
