Recipe- Pico de Gallo
Nothing says PARTY like my homemade Pico de Gallo. My not so secret "secret" ingredient- FRESH Ingredients! Fresh squeezed lemon juice -none of that plastic lemon action here people! There's NO Salt other than what occurs naturally in these fruits and veggies!
*Roma Tomatoes-seeded and diced
*Red Onion - diced
*Jalapeño Pepper- diced - seeds removed (wear gloves and eye protection when handling fresh jalapeño peppers).
*Bell Peppers- chopped/diced (I like to use yellow and orange bell peppers for their pretty color and sweetness. I don't use green because it tastes like grass to me).
*1 bunch of Cilantro finely chopped- stems removed.
* 1-2 Lemons- squeeze them for their juice!
Now in the winter when fresh jalapeños are scarce (side note-I will not use wrinkly peppers as they are not fresh)- I like to use Mrs. Renfro's jalapeños in a jar. No gloves or eye protect needed. They are always the perfect flavor.
