Lime Cucumber Salsa

This is the second salsa I've tried from Cookin' Up North and it's another winner! It is very light and fresh tasting, and contains no sugar. Great with chips and a friend served it as a side to grilled chicken and said that was very good too. As we're headed into cucumber season, don't hesitate to give it a try folks!
