I don’t know about you guys, but ever since my tomatoes have started producing I have had some serious salsa cravings. The kind of salsa that starts out with that sun ripened sweet tomato flavor ends with a mild jalapeño tingle. So here is the ultimate summer salsa recipe.

In a small bowl combine all the ingredients and chill for 1 hour. Serve with tortilla or pita chips.

1. 2 cucumber, peeled, seeded and diced
2. 4 medium heirloom tomatoes diced
3. 2 tablespoons cilantro coarsely chopped
4. 1/4 cup of chopped red onion
5. 1 small jalapeño, stemmed, seeded, and minced
6. 1 lime, juiced
7. 2 cloves garlic minced
8. salt and pepper to taste

And my secret ingredient, that brings just the right flavor enhancement…… add about 1/8 teaspoon of cajan seasoning.
