We really enjoyed this Pico De Gallo! It was easy to make and had outstanding flavor. My tomatoes were not home grown -- I used the "vine tomatoes" I found in the grocery store. I can imagine using home grown tomatoes would really take this "over the moon". Thank you for posting such an outstanding recipe.
