My Favorite Pico de Gallo || Heather's Dish #glutenfree #cleaneating #cleaneats #summerrecipes #healthy

I wasn’t totally planning on sharing this recipe.

 

Not because it’s top secret and fancy.  Not because I’m stingy.  Nope, not those things.

 

Mainly because this is such a staple around our house that I just never thought to throw the recipe in the mix here.  How’s that for a terrible excuse?  But it’s true!

 

Honestly this is our condiment of choice around these parts – we love the crunch of fresh veggies, the way it tastes with chips and a margarita, and it always tastes perfectly fresh and summery.  And since we’re almost to summer…well, it’s an obvious choice.

 

I hope you guys enjoy this as much as we do!

MY FAVORITE PICO DE GALLO RECIPE

  • 2 cups chopped fresh tomatoes (I usually just get whatever looks/smells best at the store)
  • 1/2 red onion, chopped
  • 2 jalapenos, chopped (I leave the seeds and membranes in mine)
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • 1 bunch cilantro, chopped (about 1 cup)
  • juice of 1 lime
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp cumin

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and allow to sit at room temperature for about an hour. Serve at room temperature or refrigerate to use later on.  Mine usually only lasts a few days because we eat it all, but I’ve stored it for up to a week in the fridge just fine!

      Aw, thanks Meagan! There are just some things we get so used to making that we don’t even really think to share!

    It’s interesting to see that the same dish exists in various cuisine in different names. In Bangladesh we call it “Tomato Salad” 🙂

    Your Picco de gallo looks fresh, honest and simple. Just the way I like it 🙂

      Thanks Robyn! I’m pretty excited about doing it with my own tomatoes this summer – it’ll be the first time I’ve ever actually grown them! (Well, that is of course pending they grow successfully)
