Instructions
- 1
Place the diced tomatoes in a fine-mesh strainer set over the sink. Sprinkle with 1/4 tsp of the salt, toss to coat, and let drain for 10 minutes, then press gently to release excess liquid. This keeps the salsa from becoming watery.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained tomatoes, cucumber, Kalamata olives, roasted red peppers, red onion, parsley, and mint.
