Ingredients

2 cups crunchy dill pickles diced
1 yellow onion diced
2 garlic cloves minced
2 Roma tomatoes seeded and diced
1 yellow bell pepper diced
1 red bell pepper diced
2 jalapeños minced (seeds removed if you dislike heat)
1 tablespoon pickle brine
½ lime juiced
½ teaspoon celery seed
½ teaspoon Kosher salt
¼ cup fresh cilantro finely chopped

Instructions

In a medium bowl, combine pickles, onion, garlic, tomatoes, bell peppers, and jalapenos. Stir to combine.
Stir in the pickle juice, lime juice, celery seed, salt, and cilantro. Toss until well combined.
Serve immediately or chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes up to 2 hours.

Notes

Use dill and crunchy pickles for the best flavor and texture in the pickle de gallo.
Switch up the flavor profile with garlic pickles or spicy pickles.
Don't like the sour taste? Feel free to use sweet onions and bread and butter pickles.
Add some fresh dill along with the cilantro.
Don't want it too spicy? Use pepperoncini peppers instead of jalapenoes.
Need to bulk it up? Try adding diced cucumbers.
Serve with a slotted spoon to drain the juice.
Got a little left? Chop it very fine and mix with a little mayo for a fun sandwich spread!
