Wonderful! For years I have coveted Pico de Gallo when ever I have eaten at Mexican restaurants. This actually delivers the deliscious, fresh, clean taste without over powering the tastes of the individual veetables. This is a must if you have a garden. So easy and so deliscious. I love it with nachos and fajitas, but I also love it by itself with chips. Thanks for sharing.

Delicious! This quick and easy pico de gallo is so full of flavor. My store didn't have any key limes, so I had to use regular limes. Also, we love cilantro so I increased the amount to 1/4 cup. I have an overabundance of banana peppers in my garden right now so I threw in a couple of those as well. I served this with chicken tacos and my family loved it. Thank you for sharing this fabulous recipe...it is definitely a keeper!

Yay! We're finally back home in Texas! I just graduated from Le Cordon Bleu, in Scottsdale, AZ and couldn't be happier about being home! Right now I work dinner time at Las Canarias, at "La Mansion", on the Riverwalk when I'm not studying culinary anthropology and hanging out with my gorgeous hubby Dereck. I love recipezaar, and it makes my day everytime I get a comment about how someone enjoyed making one of my dishes for their family. I can't think of anything cooler than that!
