Perfect Pico De Gallo Salsa

Recipe #302625 | 1 hour | 1 hour prep | SERVES 8 -10 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Queen Victoria

I always love pico on my tacos/burritos and with chips, and decided that I would start making my own when my neighbor started handing over bucket loads of tomatoes out of his garden. To lessen the amount of juice in the salsa, drain tomatoes before combining with other ingredients. You can customize it to your own spicy desires, but it always seems to disappear when we have guests!
