At our house, Mexican food is standard fare. And while I don’t ever call this dish by it’s true name, “pico de gallo,” I make up a batch at least once a week. We simply call it, salsa. And it is so yummy, especially if you have homegrown tomatoes.

Pico de Gallo

2-3 tomatoes, chopped
1/2 small onion, diced
juice of one lime
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 jalapeno, finely chopped

Combine all ingredients in a medium size mixing bowl. Salt and pepper to taste. Stir gently. Serve immediately.

Do you make your own salsa?

I believe great meals don't have to be complicated or expensive. There's a better way, and it won't take all afternoon.

    We just call it that fresh tomato stuff … 2 tomatos, half of an onion, 1 to 2 jalepenos, toss them in the Vidalia Chopper (if you don’t have one, the best $15 I’ve spent in a LONG time) squeeze a lime all over and dash of salt. Yumm…this goes on EVERYTHING from scrambled eggs to topping chicken off the grill. It’s my go to condiment for everything!

    Pico de gallo is my favorite summer food. I’m a big cheater and make it in the food processor. I process everything separately so it doesn’t turn into soup.

    Oh, yah! I make mine pretty much the same way but I add garlic. If you want to tickle the funny bone, serve up this hilareous video
    with dinner!
