FRESH PICO DE GALLO RECIPE

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
   • Dice the tomatoes and place them in a large bowl.
   • Finely chop the red onion and add it to the bowl.
   • Chop the fresh cilantro and add it to the bowl as well.
2. Add Heat:
   • Finely chop the jalapeño peppers after removing the seeds (for less heat) and add them to the bowl. Adjust the amount based on your spice preference.
3. Garlic Flavor:
   • Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the bowl. If you love garlic, you can add more.
4. Lime Juice:
   • Squeeze the juice of one lime into the bowl. Adjust the lime juice to taste.
5. Season:
   • Season with salt and pepper. Start with a pinch of each, then taste and adjust as needed.
6. Mix Well:
   • Gently toss all the ingredients together until well combined.
7. Chill:
   • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together.
8. Serve:
   • Once chilled, give it a final stir and taste. Adjust the seasoning if necessary.
   • Serve the pico de gallo with tortilla chips, tacos, grilled meats, or any dish where you’d like a burst of fresh flavors.

Enjoy your homemade pico de gallo! Adjust the ingredients to your liking, and feel free to get creative with additional ingredients like diced avocado or mango for a twist.
