Pico de Gallo and Guacamole

I am a mexican food fanatic and I love some guacamole and fresh pico de gallo! So the next time you are cooking mexican or having a party, add this to your list! Your guests will rave! 



Pico de Gallo


These are the yummy ingredients you will need! Roma tomatoes, cilantro, onion, jalapenos, and a lime


Add ingredients into a bowl. There should be equal amounts of tomato, onion, and cilantro. If you want your pico hot, do not seed the jalapenos. If you want your pico mild, be sure you seed the jalapenos :)


Stir to mix.




Guacamole

For guacamole, mash up the avocados


Add in desired amount of pico de gallo.
