    Recipe

    Pico de Gallo Salsa (Fresh & Easy)

    Ingredients

    • 2 lbs imperfect #2 tomatoes, chopped
    • 1 medium onion, chopped
    • 3 Serrano peppers, finely diced — use 1 for mild, 2 for medium, 3 for hot; remove the seeds and membranes for a milder salsa
    • 1 bunch fresh cilantro, finely chopped
    • Juice of 1 lime (found in your citrus mix)
    • Salt to taste

    Instructions

    1. Soaking the onions is optional, but to remove the raw bite of your onion, add the chopped onion to a bowl with cold water. Leave for 10 minutes, drain and rinse.
    2. Add the tomatoes, soaked and rinsed onion, cilantro, diced peppers, and lime juice to a bowl. Generously season with salt (start with ½ teaspoon and go from there). Set aside for 20 minutes.
    3. Stir to distribute the juices left at the bottom of the bowl. Taste and adjust with more salt. Serve!
