An easy, fresh, and raw salsa verde made without tomatillos! Made with summery ingredients like mint, cilantro, avocado, cucumber, and lime!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 english cucumber, diced small
  • 1 medium avocado, diced small
  • 1 large green onion, diced small
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1 small handful mint, minced
  • 1 small handful cilantro, minced
  • salt + pepper
  • 1/2 tsp. granulated garlic
  • drizzle honey / agave, if needed
  • minced jalapeño, if desired and to taste

Instructions

  1. Combine cucumber, avocado, green onion, lime juice, mint, and cilantro in a medium bowl. Mix to combine, taking care to not break up the avocado too much.
  2. Season with salt + pepper, and granulated garlic, and mix to combine. Taste, and add a small drizzle of honey / agave if needed to sweeten. You can also add some minced fresh or pickled jalapeño if you want to take this salsa to a spicer place. I really liked it being cool and creamy though!
  3. Serve immediately. The cucumber breaks down a bit thanks to the lime juice. It’s not horrible saved for the next day, but it’s definitely better fresh.
