Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 2 Roma tomatoes
- 1/4 cup onion (red or white)
- 1 jalapeno
- 1/4 cup cilantro
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp pickled jalapeno (optional )
Instructions
- 1
Finely dice your tomatoes, onion, jalapenos, and cilantro. *I always remove the watery seeds from the tomatoes, but this is a matter of preference! You can also remove the seeds/veins from the jalapeno if you want less spice, or just omit for zero spice!
- 2
Combine everything in a bowl, then add salt and squeeze 1 tbsp of lime juice (about 1/2 a lime).
- 3
Mix thoroughly then taste to make any adjustments for salt or lime.

I recommend letting it rest for at least 30 minutes for best results, but you can serve and enjoy right away!
