Do you make homemade salsa? or pico de gallo? We love having tacos and fajitas around here, so I find myself making it at least once a week. We all love it and even Ella will sneak the tomatoes while I’m mixing it up.
2 medium sized tomatoes
1 red onion
1 jalapeno pepper
cilantro
lime juice
salt
water
Here is what you do:Chop red onion and jalapeno {remove the seeds from the pepper if you don’t want it too spicy} and set aside.
Dice tomatoes and put into bowl. I like to pit the tomatoes first because you don’t need the extra juice, just the ripe red meat. Add two heaping tablespoons of diced onion, one tablespoon of jalapenos, one tablespoon of chopped cilantro, two tablespoons of water, a dash of lime juice and pinch of salt. Stir and taste!! Add more lime juice and salt to taste. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving.
We pile it on top of chicken and cheese fajitas and boy is it good! We even have to make Ella a mini-version without the jalapenos. We’ve been eating it all winter long, but I can’t wait to make it with some with fresh spring tomatoes.
It doesn’t hurt to have a little helper this cute. Enjoy!
