To Make the Pico De Gallo
In a medium bowl, mix together all the ingredients and set aside.

To Assemble the Nachos
For hot nachos, preheat the oven to 180 °C and spread the tortilla chips on a baking tray or in a large cast-iron skillet. Place the chips in the oven to toast for 5-10 minutes, watching them closely to make sure they don't burn. Remove the chips from the oven. For warm nachos, skip this step.
