When I go to a taco place, I always make sure to get a healthy scoop of the Pico de Gallo at the salsa bar. It’s got a little spice, but also adds a nice pop of freshness to any taco. Pico de Gallo is equally good with just some tortilla chips. Or you can mix it with guacamole. And it’s so easy to make that I don’t know why I don’t do it more often!

• 5 Roma tomatoes, diced
• 1 small onion, finely diced
• 1 bunch cilantro, roughly chopped
• 2 jalapeños, minced (leave the seeds in if you like it more spicy, remove them if you don’t!)
• Juice of 1 lime
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• salt and pepper to taste

Mix together the tomato, onion, cilantro, and jalapeno.

Add the lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

Refrigerate overnight to let all the flavors come together.
