This is Pico de Gallo all over Texas and everwhere else where Mexican food is served, and it always has fresh lime juice squeezed into it and often a drizzle of olive oil. Make sure you seed your tomatoes real good to keep the juice at a minimum. -

This is such a fresh and delicious salsa! It was so easy to make with fresh-from-the-garden veggies. I added a chile pepper and served this with tortilla chips for a yummy snack. Thanks for sharing! -
Delicious! This salsa was so quick, easy, and full of flavor. My garden is overflowing with tomatoes and peppers so this salsa is a yummy way to use them up. I used 4 plum tomatoes and only 1/2 of an onion. Also, I added 2 chile peppers and 1 tsp. of fresh lime juice. I served this as a topper for chicken fajitas and my family loved it. *Made for ZWT4*
