🧄 Directions

You can quickly put this homemade salsa by dicing and chopping a few ingredients. Then letting it sit to soak up the flavors. It’s one of the best homemade salsa recipes I have ever made or even tried for that matter. Let’s get started:

First Step: Chop up cucumbers. It’s optional to remove seeds or leave them alone. We leave them in the salsa.

Second Step: Chop tomatoes. Add tomatoes and cucumbers in a bowl. Sprinkle in the apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, ranch dressing, and Rotel tomatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Use a wooden spoon to stir.

Third Step: Place the salsa in the fridge for 1-2 hours to let the juices marry together all the way. Serve cold and enjoy!

🥄 Storage

Keep the homemade salsa recipe in a tightly covered container for up to five days. It may last longer than that, but you will need to check it over to make sure it doesn’t smell funny or have any mold. If it’s questionable throw it out.

🥣 Variations

There are many variations you can make to this cucumber salsa recipe. Here are a few of the ideas we have tried and loved over the years.

  • Red Onions – Chop up some red onions and sprinkle them into the salsa. I like to dice them up pretty small, but they add a gorgeous color.
  • Bell Peppers – Any variety of bell pepper would be fantastic. Slice them or dice them and add them to the salsa. It will give you some crunch in every bite.
  • Lemon Juice – Add the juice from half of a lemon to give it even more tanginess. So good!
  • Lime Juice – Juice a lime and drizzle it on top, then give the homemade salsa a stir.
