My husbands family is here visiting this week, so we have been going to different restaurants that they don't have where they live. We have also been trying to go to kid-friendly places. We took our family to Dave & Buster's. For those of you that don't know what that is, it is a restaurant/arcade. It's kind of a grown up version of Chuck E Cheese, and it is perfect for kids and adults. We enjoyed lunch before we played some games. I ordered off the 600 calorie or less menu and decided on the Cabo Chicken dish that came with some steamed broccoli and the chicken was topped with a delicious pineapple pico de gallo. I have never had anything like it and decided I needed to find a recipe to share with all of you.
This pico recipe would go great on top of steak, pork, or chicken breasts. You could also enjoy it with tortilla chips or pita pieces. Definitely give this a try!

Ingredients
3 small to medium sized tomatoes
1/2 large red onion
1 or 2 jalapeno peppers, seeded (2 will give it more heat, which we love)

1 lime
salt and pepper, to taste
Directions
-Chop up tomatoes, red onion, jalapeno peppers, garlic and cilantro. Place all in a medium mixing bowl.
-To the bowl of veggies, add the pineapple and reserved juice.
-Squeeze lime and add salt and pepper to the bowl. Stir all ingredients together.
-Refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving. This will ensure all the flavors come together.

Enjoy! :)
