Sometimes I really miss home Part 1 of 2

I’m originally from San Diego and therefore a huuuuuuuge fan of Mexican food. I gotta be real with everyone, the Mexican food in Northern California just isn't the same. To fix my cravings I decided to make some salsa. You can’t do much better than some fresh salsa/pico de gallo (unless it's the pico de gallo that you're Mexican friend's grandma made, because that is bar none the best).

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, diced.
  • ¼ medium onion, diced.
  • 3 cubes frozen cilantro (or fresh)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • ½ Jalapeno, seeded and deveined based on preference
  • Salt, to taste

1) Combine all ingredients. Serve with chips, or tacos, or on top of really anything that needs a bright acidic punch.


Delicious!

Cost breakdown:
Tomatoes: $0.89/2= $0.45
Lime: $0.10
Garlic: $0.06x2 cloves= $0.12
Onion: $0.20/4= $0.05
Jalapeno: $0.08/2= $0.04
Cilantro: $0.015x3 cubes= $0.05


Total: $0.45+$0.10+$0.12+$0.05+ $0.04+ $0.05= $0.81
