FRESH AND LIGHT CUCUMBER SALSA
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 ripe cucumbers: Look for cucumbers that are firm and have a deep green color. Avoid cucumbers that are yellow or have blemishes.
- Slice the cucumbers thinly: This will help the salsa to be more flavorful and easier to eat.
- Use fresh cilantro: Cilantro adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the salsa. If you can't find fresh cilantro, you can use dried cilantro, but it won't be as flavorful.
- Use a variety of peppers: You can use any type of pepper you like for this salsa. Some good options include jalapeños, serranos, and poblanos. If you want a milder salsa, remove the seeds from the peppers before chopping them.
- Adjust the amount of lime juice to taste: Some people like their salsa more tart than others. Start with a small amount of lime juice and add more to taste.
- Serve the salsa chilled: This will help to keep it refreshing and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Mandarin cucumber salsa is a delicious and refreshing salsa that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it mild or spicy, this salsa is sure to please everyone at your next party or gathering. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy appetizer or side dish, give mandarin cucumber salsa a try. You won't be disappointed!
