Fresh fruit desserts can be more than just diced fruit in a
bowl. By mixing fresh fruit with lime and making a fresh fruit
Pico de Gallo dessert goes from the hum drum ordinary to a spicy
sweet treat.
The cayenne whipped cream is a zesty way to top this
southwestern flavored fresh fruit dessert. Fresh fruit Pico de
Gallo with Cayenne Whipped Cream is a perfect end to a
traditional Mexican style meal. If you are looking for a twist
that the kids will like scoop vanilla ice cream in a bowl and
top the ice cream with fresh fruit Pico de Gallo with cayenne
whipped cream.
