This is such a fresh and light salsa. I made this one day when I needed some extra ingredients and decided to throw some cucumbers in. I now make this for every picnic or party I go to. It is requested. Wherever I am, I have to give the recipe to someone. I keep this in my fridge at all times and all my kids love it. A great way to get them to eat their veggies.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cucumbers: Look for firm, deep green cucumbers that are free of blemishes.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the cucumbers: This will help you get clean, even slices.
  • Don't overseed the cucumbers: Overslicing will make the salsa too watery.
  • Remove the seeds from the chili peppers if you don't want the salsa to be too spicy.

  • Serve the salsa immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later use.
