Ingredients
- 1 organic cucumber, diced
- 1 organic granny smith apple
- 1/4 medium organic yellow onion
- 3–5 cloves organic garlic
- 1/4 bunch fresh organic cilantro
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1/8 tsp each salt + pepper to taste
Instructions
- Rinse cucumber, apple, and cilantro thoroughly and pat dry.
- Dice cucumber and place into medium mixing bowl.
- Cut apple into quarters, remove core, and dice into small pieces about the same size as the cucumber. Set aside 1/3 of the diced apples, and add remainder to the bowl with cucumbers.
- Finely chop cilantro and add to bowl with cucumbers and apples.
- Add 1/4 cup lemon juice, salt, and pepper to cucumber apple mix, and mix briefly to combine. Set aside.
- Mince 3-5 cloves of garlic, and place into small prep bowl.
- Meanwhile finely dice 1/4 yellow onion, place in another small prep bowl, keeping separate from garlic — we’ll be cooking these with the reserved apples and garlic but in sequence.
- Heat 1 tsp olive oil medium skillet on med low.
- Add onions only and cook for about 2 minutes until slightly translucent.
- Stir in reserved apples and cook with onions for 1 minute.
- Stir in minced garlic to cook with onion/apple mixture for 1 minute, then remove from heat.
- Let the onion, apple, garlic cooked mixture cool about a minute then add it to apple and cucumbers in mixing bowl.
- Gently stir to mix everything together.
- Serve immediately, or refrigerate for about 1 hour for a more chilled salsa. Enjoy!
