Crisp Cucumber Salsa image

I found this recipe and I had an over abundance of cucumbers from my garden, so I made some and brought it to work. Once coworker's comment was "I could sit here and eat gallons of this."

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 c finely chopped seeded and peeled cucumber
1/2 c finely chopped and seeded tomato
1/4 c red onion
2 Tbsp minced fresh parsley
1 jalepeno pepper, seeded and chopped
4 1/2 tsp minced fresh cilantro
1 clove minced garlic
1/4 c reduced fat sour cream
1 1/2 tsp lemon juice
1 1/2 tsp lime juice
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp seasoned salt

Steps:

  • 1. After peeling, seeding, and chopping cucumber, I would recommend draining some of the excess water/fluid from the cucumbers by placing the chopped cucumbers in a colander.
  • 2. In a small bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. In another bowl, combine the sour cream, lemon juice, lime juice, cumin and seasoned salt. Pour over cucumber mixture and toss gently to coat.
  • 3. Serve immediately with tortilla chips Note: 1/4 cup is only 16 calories!
