I make more than sparks and sawdust around here. I also whip up some great “guy food” when my wife is not around.
Wicked Good Pico de Gallo! That’s just one of the reasons I’m known as “The Guy Food Gourmet!”
I absolutely love this stuff, and it’s not just for dipping with tortilla chips. It’s great on eggs or in your breakfast burrito. It’s wonderful on any Mexican, Tex-mex, or Southwestern dish. It’s also incredibly wonderful as a gazpacho – eating a chilled bowl of it with a big spoon!
Fair warning: My version of Pico de Gallo is incredibly addictive, and once you taste your first bite, you can’t stop eating it until it’s gone! The recipe is below, but it’s not hard and fast. You have the option to add more or less of any of the ingredients. With the exception of salt, I don’t think there is anything you can add too much of. So, have at it and give this dish a try. I’m sure you won’t regret it!
