Cucumber Salsa Recipe
Description
This Cucumber Salsa combines diced cucumbers, tomatoes, green bell pepper, jalapeno, onion, and minced garlic with citrusy lime juice and fresh cilantro. Dill weed and garlic salt add subtle herbaceous and savory notes. The salsa is mixed and refrigerated for an hour to develop flavor and allow the ingredients to marry.
The result is a cool, slightly spicy salsa with crisp texture from the cucumber and bell pepper, brightness from lime juice, and a fresh herbal finish. The jalapeno adds mild heat balanced by the acidity and cooling elements.
The salsa pairs well as a topping for grilled dishes or as a refreshing dip served with tortilla chips.
