We met our friend Kelly Toler many years ago when she and Stanton moved into the neighborhood. They are a wonderful family of 5. We kept two of their children in the church nursery, and Lou was Jackson’s kindergarten teacher. We also shared a small group for many years. Often, our small group would gather with other groups down at our neighborhood beach. Everyone brought their children along with an appetizer to share. We all loved this salsa the very first time she brought it. It’s very light and refreshing especially during our hot Mississippi summers.
Kelly's Cucumber Salsa
Ingredients:
1 English cucumber, peeled and diced into very small pieces
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can shoe peg corn, drained
1 red bell pepper, diced
5 green onions, chopped
1/4 cup oil
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoon sugar
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve. You may want to add a little more red wine vinegar if you want a little more juice. Add more sugar if you prefer it sweeter. I serve this with multi-grain Scoops.
Sweet Kelly with Stanton and their three children, Annie, Street and Jackson.
