Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Seedless red grapes
- 1 cup Seedless green grapes
- 1 medium (about 1 cup diced) Cucumber
- 0.25 cup (finely chopped) Red onion
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh cilantro
- 1 small (finely minced, seeds removed) Jalapeño pepper
- 1 medium (zested and juiced) Lime
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Wash and dry the red and green grapes. Slice each grape into halves or quarters, depending on their size, and place them in a medium mixing bowl.
Peel and dice the cucumber into small, evenly-sized pieces (about 1/4-inch cubes). Add the diced cucumber to the bowl with the grapes.
Finely chop the red onion and fresh cilantro, then add them to the bowl.
Carefully mince the jalapeño pepper, removing the seeds and membranes if you prefer less heat, and add it to the mixture.
Zest and juice the lime into a small bowl. Add the honey, salt, and black pepper to the lime juice and whisk to combine.
Pour the lime dressing over the grape and cucumber mixture. Toss gently to combine all the ingredients evenly.
Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or lime juice if needed.
Cover and refrigerate the salsa for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled with chips, tacos, grilled chicken, or fish.
