Ingredients
1 cup small dice red onion
4 ribs celery, small dice, leaves reserved
1 English cucumber, small dice, divided

- In a food processor, add the onion, celery, half of the cucumber, red pepper, and jalapeno and pulse until chunky smooth. Add the tomatoes and pulse again to blend. Add the Worcestershire, vegetable juice, fruit juices, cilantro, and garlic, and puree until smooth. Remove from the processor to a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
