need pico recipes

[reddog]

looking for a pico recipes. thanks for all the help

I just made some this afternoon. Unfortunately I'm not as smart as Mesquite Country and think to write down recipes as I cook.

It was nothing special:
A couple of roma tomatoes diced
One yellow onion diced.
Two cloves of garlic.
Five jalapeños diced. I like the spice!
Fresh (has to be fresh) cilantro I leave out the stems on the cilantro and just tear up the leaves. I put in cilantro gradually until I get the taste I want.
Salt & crushed black pepper to taste.
Quarter and squeeze a lime over the mixture.

Mix well & refrigerate for an hour or so to let the flavors mingle.

I'm sure there are other variations that are just as good or better.

Try it & let me know what you think.

greenflag has it right, adjust 'maters to your taste. only thing i do different is put a few dashes of tabasco in it. sometimes i de-seed the peppers so the rest of the house can eat it too-ain't i nice!

Pico is perty much to taste and sight. When people ask me for a recipe I tell them to go by sight. If it looks like pico then you are on the right track. Add salt & pepper to taste. Add lime to taste. I also like to add Season All, lemon pepper and garlic powder to taste. If you dont want it hot add bell peppers if you like it hot add serano peppers.
