Turkey Leftovers

Wonderful night, just relaxing watching the Labyrinth <3 Within You is one of my fave songs. I still don't have satellite! The guy came to install & you know it's not going to be good when you hear him mumble, "oh s*!t." So still no sports for me . Unpacking has been slow because I've been sick. I was able to get enough energy to bust out Cardio Max this morning... & passed back out for a bit haha.

What do you get from a big bird & only five people... leftover turkey! My Grandma sent me home with some & randomly pico de gallo popped into my head today. So I decided to make my own instead of buying pre-made.

Pico de Gallo
Adapted from Oh She Glows
15 min (prep time)
About 4-6 cups

2- Large FIRM tomatoes
1- Bunch of cilantro (stems removed & roughly chopped) (approx 1/2-3/4 cup)
1- Large sweet onion
2- Jalapeno peppers (if you don't like things too hot, remove the seeds)

I didn't use salt or lime & it still tasted good, but if you want to use it - 1 Lime & use Kosher salt or Sea salt, to taste. I may do this next time.

- Finely chop the onion, tomatoes, jalapenos. Remove thick stems of the cilantro & roughly chop. Mix the onion, tomato, hot pepper, & cilantro in a bowl. (If you wanted to use lime squeeze fresh lime juice on top). Stir well, season with salt to taste if you'd like.

- Seal in an airtight container to keep it fresh.

Tasted just like the store bought kind my Dad use to buy for us. My only issue was chopping the cilantro... definitely not pro at cilantro chopping.

Here comes the turkey! So for dinner I layered some mixed greens, warmed up 2 oz of leftover turkey, 2 Tbsp of my fresh pico de gallo, almond cheddar cheese, & drizzled with a Tbsp of balsamic vinegar. Yummerz! Made my belly very happy! I tend to make one serving dishes because well... I'm serving one haha. I really should start making this stuff enough for leftovers. Save some time.
