Pico de Gallo

Pico de Gallo, one of my first loves.  Oh how I truly love fresh pico, especially on a hot summer day.  There's something about the simplicity of the fresh tomatoes, cilantro and the crispness of the onion and the jalapeno...and of course, the super refreshing hint of lime juice.

It's so easy to make, all that's required is a little bit of cleaning of veggies (then then cleaning of the mess you'll make) and a little bit of dicing.
I always sharpen my knife before I cut tomatoes.  There's nothing like a knife going through a tomato instead of having to saw at your tomato in hopes that you can cut it.

4 Tomatoes
1/4 onion (use more if you like more onion flavor)
2 jalapenos (remove seeds)
2 serrano (remove seeds)  -- with peppers, use less if you want less spicy & more if ya like it hot.  I like it hot, so I used more than what is in the picture
1/4 bunch of cilantro (only use the leaves)
squeeze a lime
Sprinkle with salt

If you prefer salsa that's not as chunky, this is an easy fix.  Simply blend & POOF, you've got yourself some salsa!
