Fantastic recipe! Thanks for posting. As a note, I used lime juice, substituted zucchini for cucumber, and added 1/2 of a red onion finely diced (which I soaked in the lime juice while I was cutting up my other vegetables) and some chopped sweet orange peppers. Your base recipe is terrific though! - 7/31/17
