How to Make Salsa Pico De Gallo

  1. Finely chop the onion, tomatoes, cilantro, and jalapeño. (If using a food processor, pulse gently to avoid over-processing and losing texture.)
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes, onion, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, and Ro-Tel.
  3. Gently stir in the salt to taste.
  4. For a smoother salsa, use a food processor and pulse until you reach your desired consistency. Be careful not to over-process.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. For even better flavor, chill overnight!
  6. Serve with your favorite tortilla chips, tacos, burritos, or as a topping for grilled meats and fish. Enjoy!
