Crisp Cucumber Salsa

Colleen's take: "I made this dish for a baby shower and it was pinned on the guest of honors Pinterest wall. Normally it's something I wouldn't make, but it ended up being pretty delicious in contrast with everything else at the party. I did feel like it was missing a certain pop of flavor but I couldn't place my finger on it. I'd try this one if you are looking for something different to serve at a party, everyone seemed to appreciate it."
Crisp Cucumber Salsa
Yield 2-1/2 cups

2 cups finely chopped seeded peeled cucumber
1/2 cup finely chopped seeded tomato
1/4 cup chopped red onion
2 Tbsp minced fresh parsley
1 jalepeno pepper, seeded and chopped
4-1/2 tsp minced fresh cilantro
1 garlic clove, minced or pressed
1/4 c reduced-fat sour cream
1-1/2 tsp lemon juice
1-1/2 tsp lime juice
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp seasoned salt
Tortilla chips

In a small bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. In another bowl, combine the sour cream, lemon juice, lime juice, cumin and seasoned salt. Pour over cucumber mixture and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately with chips.

1/4 cup (w/out chips) equals 16 calories
