We love pico de gallo at my house. It is the perfect condiment for adding a little zip to your food. Best of all, it is so darn good for you! Low calorie and healthy. As a mom, I can’t ask for much more. This pico is especially great loaded on top of my Chicken Burrito Bowls. Enjoy!
Chop up all of the ingredients and place in a bowl.
Stir together. Check for seasoning. Add salt if needed. Enjoy!
Tips for this recipe
- Roma tomatoes work best in this recipe because of their firm interiors.
- For the best flavor let it marinate for an hour, up to 24 hours.
- Mix things up by adding diced avocado or bell pepper. Throw in some black beans or corn kernels to make it more of a cowboy caviar.
- Like it mild? Remove the jalapenos.
- Like it spicy? Add more jalapenos or consider using a spicier pepper like serrano.
- Serve with a slotted spoon to avoid adding too much liquid to your food.
- The pico should last in the refrigerator for up to four days.
