   Rinse the cilantro under cold water, pat it dry with a paper towel, and chop it roughly.

4. 4

   Combine Ingredients

   In a medium mixing bowl, combine the sliced onion, diced tomato, diced green bell pepper, and chopped cilantro.

5. 5

   Add Lime Juice and Olive Oil

   Pour in the lime juice and olive oil over the vegetable mix, ensuring everything is well coated.

   Season the Salsa

   Sprinkle salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well and adjust seasoning as needed.

   Chill Before Serving
