Yummy pico de gallo is all about ratios. This is my foolproof Fresh Pico De Gallo recipe and I think you’ll find it’s your go to recipe for taco night.

Best Tomatoes for Fresh Pico De Gallo
I like to use Roma tomatoes for my pico de gallo. They are a meatier tomato and don’t include alot of watery seeds. You want your pico to be chunky and fresh tasting. When comparing Pico De Gallo vs. Salsa it’s really a case of more sauce with the salsa and more veggies with the pico de gallo. Since you’ll be slicing a fair amount of tomatoes for this recipe, you’ll want a really sharp knife. My favorite knife for tomato slicing is this Tomato Knife by Rada Cutlery. It’s super affordable and you can get it right on Amazon! How easy is that?
