Fresh Rhubarb Salsa

Use only tender, thin stalks of rhubarb for this salsa. It pairs well with grilled chicken or pork.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup diced rhubarb stems
  • ¾ cup diced English or Lemon Globe cucumbers
  • ½ cup diced yellow bell pepper
  • ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Fresh ground pepper
  • 1 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil
  • Juice from half a lime

Instructions
 

  • Place the rhubarb, cucumber, bell pepper and cilantro in a medium-sized bowl. Mix thoroughly with a spoon. In a separate bowl, whisk the honey, salt, pepper, oil and lime juice. Add this to the vegetable mixture. Stir to coat. Adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper and honey, if desired.
