Eat: Pico De Gallo and Homemade Taco Recipe

Favorites, Food, LifeStyle

 

Hey Ya’ll!

I hope you all had an amazing 4th of July this past weekend!

Today I thought I’d share a really easy salsa recipe that I love to add to my tacos! Tacos are a staple in our home, and we love to load on the toppings! One of my favorite toppings is homemade Pico De Gallo, the yummiest, chunkiest salsa ever! It’s such a fresh salsa, it’s perfect for any recipe you want t a little spice!

It’s really easy to make, so it’s perfect for anyone!

Let me know how you like this recipe! What’s your favorite way to make a taco?

Ingredients:

  • Cilantro
  • 4-5 Roma tomatoes
  • 1 large onion
  • 1 jalepeno (2 if you’re feeling daring!)
  • optional: a spritz of lime juice or a drop of Dottera lime essential oil
  • For the tacos: we used 1 lb of hamburger, 1 avocado, and Mexican blend cheese

 

To make Pico De Gallo, all you need to do is dice the jalepeno, tomatoes, and onions into the smallest pieces you prefer. For the jalepenos, I don’t add all the seeds into the salsa, because I like my salsa not too spicy. Feel free to add as much of the seeded middle as you’d like though! Next, add a couple of pieces of the cilantro, and you’re done!

Easy right?!

Next for the rest of the tacos, I cooked up 1 lb of ground beef and added some fajita and taco spices to give it a little flavor. I then made my own taco shells. To do this, all I did was crisp one side of a corn tortilla in some oil, and when I flipped it, I folded it in half. It’s a delicious and fresh way to make your very own taco shells!

After slicing up some avocado, my tacos are ready to be eaten! I love making these simple tacos because they are super easy and quick!

I hope you enjoyed!

xoxo

At first glance, this just looks like a normal fam At first glance, this just looks like a normal family picture turned to art… but if you scroll to the actual picture, you see that there are two extra people in the art piece. 
Those 2 people are my brother and sister who have passed away. And it means the world to me that I can visually see them in our family picture on our vacation. I sure felt them close while we were there 💙. 

Thank you soooo much @mwarnercreative for making this for my family! It’s been fun to reconnect with you from our BYU days!! And thank you to my brother and sister in law for making this amazing picture happen for us! 💙💙
