Instructions

1
Make the pico de gallo: combine the diced tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, and cilantro in a medium bowl. Add the lime juice and salt, toss to combine, and set aside to let the flavors meld while you prepare the remaining components.
2
Make the avocado crema: add the avocado flesh, sour cream, lime juice, garlic, and salt to a blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth, adding water 1 tablespoon at a time until the crema is pourable but still thick enough to coat a spoon. Taste and adjust salt if needed.
