    Pickle de Gallo

    This Pickle de Gallo is a fresh, tangy, and flavorful twist on classic salsa! Made with crisp cucumbers, red onions, and bell peppers, this quick-pickled topping comes together in minutes. Lightly sweetened with honey and infused with fresh dill, it’s the perfect addition to burgers, hot dogs, or even a zesty dip for chips.
    Prep Time: 5 minutes
    Pickling Time: 5 minutes
    Total Time: 10 minutes
    Servings: 6 servings

    Ingredients

    • 2 cups cucumber, thinly diced
    • 1/2 cup red onion, thinly diced
    • 1/2 cup red bell pepper, thinly diced
    • 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
    • 1/2 cup vinegar
    • 1/2 cup water
    • 1 tsp salt
    • 1 tsp honey

    Instructions

    • Add cucumbers, red onions, bell pepper and dill to a medium bowl. Toss to combine and set aside.
    • In a small saucepan combine water, vinegar, salt and honey.
      Heat the mixture over medium high heat for 2-3 minutes or until the honey is dissolved.
    • Remove from the heat and pour on top of the vegetables. Stir and let them quick pickle for no more than 5 minutes. (Any more and they will become too salty)
    • Using a colander strain out the brine from the vegetables. Now it's ready!
    • Store in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can enjoy on burgers, hot dogs or your favorite proteins.
      It also makes a great dip with chips!

    Notes

    • Dice the Veggies Evenly. Try to dice the cucumbers, onions, and bell peppers as uniformly as you can, as this ensures more balanced flavors.
    • Don’t Over-Pickle the Veggies. Let the veggies sit in the brine for no more than 5 minutes to keep them crisp and prevent them from becoming too salty.
    • Let it Chill. While you can enjoy it right away, letting it sit in the fridge for an hour enhances the flavors even more!
