Pico de gallo

Do your kids frequently say "yuk" to vegetables? Mine do.

But they enjoy this nutritious, easy, quick, pico de gallo recipe. (I enjoy cooking with fresh tomatoes) Instead of tortilla chips, I'll have it with wheat thins or even just as an accompaniment with BBQ chicken breasts or beef.

Pico De Gallo Recipe

5 Roma tomatoes washed and stem part removed, cut in halves
1/2 green bell pepper washed/seeded, cut into 5 parts
1 bunch cilantro washed and stems cut off
1 bunch Mexican onions (similar to green onions) cleaned & with green stems removed
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp cumin
1 tsp oregano

In a food processor put in bell pepper, cilantro and onions; chop until relatively fine.

Add tomatoes and barely chop; so that chunks of tomato are present.

Remove and mix in salt, garlic powder, cumin and oregano.
