I made some Pico de Gallo and Texas caviar for my Monday Meal prep this week because I want more fresh in my diet. It also lets me use the over abundance of cilantro from the aero garden.
These two dishes are about the same, so I made them together to reduce the prep and end up with more yummy, almost 8 pints of it to be exact. Chop all the onions, garlic and jalapenos and cover with lime juice while you clean and rinse the beans and cut and seed the tomatoes. Toss in and add the cilantro and salt and pepper to taste. Chill over night if it will last that long.
Pico De Gallo
- 1/2 bell pepper
- 2 fresh jalapenos seeded them today.
- 1/2 red onion
- about 10 roma tomatoes with the seeds removed (about 2 pounds)
- 1/2 head of garlic chopped
- the juice of two limes
- fresh cilantro
- salt and fresh ground pepper to taste.
Texas Caviar
- 1 can of black eyed peas rinsed
- 1 can of black beans rinsed since i only had one can of peas.
- 1 can of sweet corn which I forgot to add.
- 1/2 red onion
- 1 fresh jalapeno with the seeds removed. It may need more.
- 1/2 bell pepper
- one fresh chopped roma tomato.
- fresh cilantro
- 1/2 head of garlic
