Kiwi, Mango, and Cucumber Salsa with Lime and Jalapeno

(Makes about 2 cups of salsa, recipe created by Kalyn with inspiration from Lydia.)

4 kiwifruit, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 mango, peeled, seed removed, and cut into 1/2 inch pieces
2 small cucumbers, cut into 1/2 inch pieces (if the cucumber has thick skin, I would peel it)
2-3 green onions, sliced
4 T fresh squeezed lime juice
1 tsp. green Tabasco sauce (or more, if you like it spicy)
sea salt to taste (I used about 1/2 tsp.)

Peel kiwifruit and cut into pieces about 1/2 inch. Peel mango and remove seed, then cut the mango into pieces about 1/2 inch. Cut cucumbers into pieces the same size as kiwi and mango, peeling if the cucumber you have has a thick skin. Slice green onions.

Combine the diced kiwifruit, mango, cucumber, and sliced green onions in a bowl (with a tight-fitting lid if you're going to chill the salsa.) Whisk together the lime juice and green Tabasco sauce in a small bowl, then pour over the fruit-vegetable mixture. Stir a few times to combine.

This can be served at room temperature or chilled for a few hours.
