Pico de Gallo

I LOVE pico de gallo.  I could almost eat it by the spoonful!  

6 Roma tomatoes
2 jalapeno peppers (sliced, seeds removed and finely diced)
1 white onion
1 bunch cilantro
1 garlic clove
salt
juice of 1 lime

Chop all of the veggies, mince the garlic and toss together with salt and lime juice.

If you want it hotter, keep some seeds from the jalapeno. When removing seeds, either wear gloves or be very careful - they are hot. I've learned that lesson scratching my nose afterward, it was not fun! Salt to taste.

I used grape tomatoes and a red onion this time, because it's what I had on hand.  You can vary this recipe with your favorite type of onion, pepper, etc, add more of what you like and less of what you don't.
 You can serve this with tortilla chips, or on tacos or fajitas. 

 One serving is 0 points+.
