How can I edit or insert a local file when using Tramp on Emacs?

I've been using Centos 7 Emacs Tramp mode to edit files remotely, but I can't find how to insert a local file into a remote file. I tried opening the local file first, but I think there must be a better way to do this. Thanks for your help.
