Instead of store-bought salsa (which often features hidden sugar and additives), mix up a batch of this fresh pico de gallo. It's quick and easy to make and a fraction of the cost of store-bought pico de gallo.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro stems and leaves, finely chopped
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 8 roma tomatoes or other small to medium tomatoes, finely chopped
  • 1 small jalapeño pepper minced, seeded if desired for less heat (optional)
  • Juice of 1 to 2 limes
  • Sea salt and ground black pepper

Instructions

Toss together all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Alternatively, place all the ingredients in a food processor and pulse until the desired consistency is reached.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
