Plum Salsa
So what does one do with a bumper crop of jalapenos, Armenian cucumbers, and a very generous neighbor who gives you two grocery sacks filled to the brim with freshly picked plums? You get creative. Now, I remembered a while back I had stumbled across some interesting salsa recipes on Martha Stewart's website. So after a bit of Googling I found the recipe and promptly got to dicing and a slicing. Now, you don't HAVE to use Armenian cucumbers. I just happened to use them because I had about 3 foot long buggars, so that's what I used.
