nightshade free salsa

A simple nightshade free salsa verde that tastes so delicious, you won't miss the tomatillos.

Nightshade Free Salsa Verde

cucumber (about 3/4 lb), peeled

yellow onion

cumin

salt, divided

olive oil

lime juice (about one lime)

cilantro

oregano

garlic

water

Preheat oven to 450 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Slice the peeled cucumber into spears and the onion into medium size chunks and place on lined baking sheet.

Top cucumbers and onions with olive oil, cumin and 1/4 teaspoon of salt and bake on the upper middle rack for 15-20 minutes. You want the onions and cucumber to char slightly.

Remove from oven and let cool until you can touch, then add to the blender with the remaining salt, lime juice, cilantro, oregano, garlic and water.

Jennifer, this is one of my all-time favorite recipes. I've been nightshade free for about 15 years and have been suffering through a salsa desert. These combined ingredients somehow tell my brain I'm eating tomatillo sauce with jalapenos. Who knew? A whole recipe was gone in under 24 hours because my family went to town on it too. This will be a staple. I'm making more today. Thanks - it feels like a GIFT!
