Ingredients
2 medium heirloom tomatoes, diced
1/2 medium white onion, finely minced
1/2 medium English cucumber, diced
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
2 medium serrano peppers, thinly sliced
1 medium lime
Kosher salt to taste
Directions
Dice the heirloom tomatoes into bite-sized pieces, removing excess seeds and juice if desired. Place in a medium mixing bowl.
Finely mince the white onion and add to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Dice the English cucumber into small, even pieces and add to the mixture.
Roughly chop the fresh cilantro and fold gently into the vegetable mixture.
Thinly slice the serrano peppers, adjusting the quantity based on your heat preference, and stir into the pico de gallo.
Cut the lime in half. Squeeze the fresh lime juice over the mixture and season with kosher salt to taste. Toss gently to combine.
Let the pico de gallo rest for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving on warm quelite-based tacos.
