Fresh and Easy Pico

Fresh and Easy Pico de Gallo is one of my favorite fresh treats. It reminds me of summers bounty with fresh onions, tomatoes, jalapenos and lime juice. We soften the cilantro up with a bit of mint. Have this anytime of the year to get that fresh fix!

– Roma tomatoes – Jalapeños – Fresth Mint – Lime – Salt and pepper -Diced Red Onion –Chopped Cilantro

INGREDIENTS

Chop the red onion into small bits.

STEP 1

CAREFULLY open up those small jalapeños and CAREFULLY seed and remove the membrane. Dice about the same size as the onions.

STEP 2

Cut tomatoes in half and seed and dice the same size as the peppers.

STEP 3

 Chop the mint and cilantro

STEP 4

Juice the lime. Add a pinch of salt and pepper as well as the mint and cilantro.

STEP 5

 Squeeze the whole lime on and mix! Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 6

Pico is a great stand alone with a side of chips. However, we like to use it in many ways. I love it with eggs. It really brightens up your breakfast plate. It is also great served over fish and of course in a salad!

Serve and Enjoy!
