This is my favorite recipe for Homemade Pico de Gallo. I keep fresh veggies in the fridge so that I can whip up easy and healthy recipes that taste fresh! Remember to add staple veggies to your grocery list such as tomatoes, cucumber, green onion, yellow or red onions and spinach, for example. Having lemons and limes are always important to add freshness to any recipe. Enjoy this fast and fresh meal with a cheese conversion for a warm and heavier version.
What you need:
Dice the following in a bowl:
1/2 large onion
