Pico de Gallo

Submitted by StaceyB

"I love spicy foods, and this spices up anything. You can always remove all of the jalapeno seeds if it is to hot, and of course you could keep all of the seeds if you like it hotter. I top my Spicy Mexican Meatloaf with this, but you can use it as a side for any dish."

This is authentic Pico de Gallo, no frills. I use red onion most of the time, bu yellow onion is great too!
