  • Serve fresh and hot from oven.
  • Each tortilla should contain 2 - 4 Tsp of Picado
  • Add any desired toppings (guacamole, Tomatoes, lettuce, salsa, etc.)
  • Many people love this without any additional toppings.
  • Roll tortillas and eat.
  • Best if served with refried beans (with sausage) and Spanish Rice.

My family loves the salsa from Carlos O'Kelly's. This is as close as I can come and it is delicious! You can add anything to this salsa, we've added different peppers or more garlic. It's always good.
