As promised, here’s the recipe for my husband’s pico de gallo (fresh salsa). It is so yummy! We prefer to make it a few hours in advance so that the flavors can marinate together.
Ingredients:
- fresh diced tomatoes, preferably Roma tomatoes
- fresh diced onions
- fresh finely sliced cilantro (leaf and stalk)
- fresh diced jalapeno pepper (to make milder, remove seeds)
- minced garlic or garlic powder
- lime juice
- Adobo seasoning
- salt (optional)
Chop up fresh ingredients and place into bowl. Add seasonings. There is not specific measurements. As you can see in the picture, the main ingredient is fresh tomatoes. All the other ingredients are according to your taste preferences. Let me know if you have any questions.
Enjoy!

Hi Karen. I spent a week in mexico with my brother and he took me to where all the locals like to eat. I tasted pico de gallo for the first time and loved it. Can I make a lot of it and can it for later or is it best to make fresh each time.
Hi Ray. I have canned salsa before, but not pico de gallo. My concern is the process that the tomatoes need to go through before canning.
