I love salsa with a hint of natural sweetness and ground cherries are a perfect addition. This is a relatively mild salsa; if you like it spicier, don't remove the jalapeno seeds, or increase the amount of jalapeno. I use only organic produce, so I don't peel the cucumber.

Easy Mango Salad
The salad ingredients came from a cooking class I went to, but the dressing came from a friend. Make sure you use firm mangos or they will be impossible to julienne.
Copycat Big Boy Strawberry Pie
This copycat Big Boy strawberry pie is just like the restaurant version. Packed with fresh strawberries in chilled strawberry gelatin, and topped with whipped cream, this pie is a cool treat for a hot summer day.
No Bake Lime Mousse Torte
This torte is tart and tangy. I take it to a lot of potluck dinners and everyone raves and begs for the recipe. It is easy and can be made several days ahead. Decorate with dollops of whipped cream, raspberries, and fresh mint leaves, if desired.
