pico de gallo
Our garden at the house is starting to have stuff come in - best time of the summer! There’s not a lot better in the world than eating a tomato right off the vine :D We eat a looooottttt of Mexican food at home, and this time of year is awesome [insanely hot temperatures notwithstanding…] because we can get most of the ingredients from the garden - no comparison to store bought veggies!
what you will need:
[there aren’t many fotos because chopping up tomatoes doesn’t mix well with cameras, haha]
3-4 large tomatoes, seeded and cut up
2-3 large jalapenos [more or less depending on how hot you like it], seeded & diced
half a large onion [~1/2 cup], diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped finely
juice from one lime [~2 tbsp]
2-3 cloves minced garlic [to taste]
1/2 tsp salt
pepper to taste
Chop up veggies and cilantro and throw into a bowl; add lime juice and spices and mix well. Then devour with some corn chips :D It also tastes awesome in tacos, on nachos, in rice casserole like I had for lunch the other day, and probably lots of other things too!
