Blended Pico de Gallo Salsa step by step

  1. Throw it all in a blender, pulsing a few times at first to pull the ingredients into the blade, then blending for a minute or two until it's nice and smooth, no chunks left..
  2. You may want to add a little salt at this point if your produce is specially juicy (or if you just like things saltier). Maybe a pinch more sugar if the tomatoes and lime gave it a little too much tang for your liking. Or perhaps another squeeze of lime juice if your tomatoes are a little flat. If you do adjust the seasoning, don't forget to give it another quick (15 to 20 seconds) whirl to ensure all the seasonings are evenly distributed..
  3. That's it! Enjoy as you would any salsa. :).

Serve with healthy dishes like grilled fish or chicken breast or vegetarian tacos for a nutritious meal. I bought this specifically to make pico de gallo, but all it does is cut giant chunks. I precut everything before putting it in, like the instructions said to. I think the blade positioning is wrong, and it just cuts straight instead of at an angle. Whatever wasn't mushed up and mangled was cut into huge chunks.
