Pico de Gallo

Fresh and simple!

I like to make this when making Fajitas or Tacos, but it is also nice with a big bowl of Tortilla Chips.  

1 1/2 - 2 cups tomatoes, seeded and chopped

1/2 cup onion, chopped

2 jalapeno peppers, chopped fine*

handful fresh cilantro chopped

1-2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

dash or two of salt

1 tablespoon olive oil

Toss chopped tomatoes, jalapenos, onion, and cilantro together.  Sprinkle with a bit of salt and lime juice, then stir in olive oil.  

If the tomatoes are a little too acidic, a little sprinkle of sugar (not too much) will tame that down. 

* the heat of the peppers are mostly in the seeds and the white pith they are attached to - depending on how hot or mild you like it add those accordingly.
