This simple dish is a sturdy, portable snack that works as a salsa, salad or topper for grilled chicken or fish. It features our favorite summertime combo: Jalapeno Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Peach White Balsamic. Then we bring in a little heat with our Baja Fish Taco Blend. Serve this with tortilla chips or in lettuce wraps. It’s hearty, holds well in the fridge and packs a protein punch.
