Method:
1. Wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly before preparing them. I soak, rinse, a& wash all of the fruits and vegetables in 9.5 pH Kangen water (alkaline water). The Kangen water will help remove any pesticide residue. I will remind you that even organically grown food have pesticides; not all.
2. In large mixing bowl combine the following chopped fruits and vegetables: cucumbers, onion, bell peppers, apples, and mint leaves.

What is versatile about this recipe is that you can add in seafood such as: grilled or steamed shrimp. Also, grilled, pan seared, or baked salmon. Another suggestion is to make a cucumber salad lettuce wrap. Either way, this dish is easy, quick, and a great way to start a party with some white wine as an appetizer or side dish.
