Organic Me Please...


During the summers here in Tennessee I shop at my local organic farmers market. The pico de gallo that can be made with tomatoes like these is something to talk about! Here is my recipe for superior pico...

PICO DE GALLO (Currier Style)

4 large ripe tomatoes - diced
1 large sweet yellow onion - diced
2 fresh jalapeños - deseeded, deveined, and minced
handful of cilantro roughly chopped
juice of 1 lime
salt & pepper to taste

Serve this with good ole tortilla chips or spice up tilapia by baking it with a little pico on top. The possiblities are endless. I also love to add things to vary the flavors. Add 1 cup of fresh corn kernals and a diced avocado to make a dip that is the envy of all your friends. Serve this dip topped with crumbled feta and watch out! Of course, a corona with lime is always a fabulous accompaniment.
