Notes
Preparation Time includes making the salsa and the pico. If you choose to fry tortillas, here is how to do it. Heat a small amount of Canola oil in a skillet. Once the oil is hot, place one tortilla in and fry for 30-45 seconds each side. Keep the tortillas as flat as possible and pop up any bubbles that may form. Transfer to paper towel to drain.
