Snack Attack: Cucumbers & Salsa!

Not sure who passed this one onto me, but I finally got the guts to try it and it's awesome!

Just chop up some cucumbers, top with any type of salsa (I used Lime & Garlic, I was going to try Peach, but chickened out) - and enjoy!

I'm always on the look out for quick, healthy snacks to bring to work and this one fits the bill.

Happy Snacking!

Update: If preparing ahead of time, I would remove the seeds or use a seedless cucumber.  The water from the seeds thins out the salsa if allowed to sit too long.

    That DOES sound interesting...I am always trying to figure out how to add more veggies to my diet. Cucumbers aren't my favorite veg but maybe when combined with salsa it would be good. I will give it a try. So do you eat this on a pita or with some kind of chip/cracker? Awesome Blog!!

    Steph,

    I cut my cucumber in 1/2" slices and then again into quarters. This made perfect bit size pieces, so I just ate them straight with the salsa. If you were to dice the cucumber and combine with salsa, this would go very nicely with a pita or or chips or crackers (probably the smaller the pieces the better with these).

    Thanks for the shout out!
