CREAMY CUCUMBER SALSA
This easy cream cucumber salsa is a refreshing summer appetizer.
This is the perfect recipe to use up any fresh garden cucumbers. Our creamy cucumber salsa is so easy to prepare. It makes a great afternoon snack or appetizer. It can also be added to any meal as a side dish. I’ve served this salsa with fajitas and our pork carnitas.
Ingredients Needed for Creamy Cucumber Salsa:
Cucumber chopped, peeled, and seeded
Cherry tomatoes
Black olives
Red onion
Chopped cilantro
Fresh parsley
Sour cream
Mayonnaise
Lemon juice
Garlic powder
Cayenne
Smoked paprika
Black pepper
Salt
Tortilla chips
Recipe Notes: This salsa is very versatile. If your family likes spicy, you can certainly add jalapeno peppers or more cayenne. If you’re not a fan of cilantro you can try replacing it with fresh dill. I’ve added avocado to this salsa and my family loved it.
If you have an abundance of garden cucumbers you might want to try our homemade dill pickles!
