Cucumber Mint Salad
FRESH SUMMER SALAD
This salad is so good that it deserves its’ own blogpost even though it is very simple and easy to prepare. Using a fresh cucumber from the local farmer’s market combined with fresh mint from my garden created the perfect pairing. I started making this salad soon after I met my husband and over the years I’ve changed it to perfection. Right now it’s to early to find in season cucumbers, but in the winter I get fresh organic cucumbers at Trader Joe’s.
This salad is best served with my turkey hummus burgers that I also started making at the same time and you will find it in a separate blogpost coming soon. It’s also delicious with any of your favorite burgers. I always have leftovers because it’s still just my husband and I for most meals therefore I often eat it with other healthy fats for my first meal of the day whether it’s breakfast or lunch.
Thanks everyone for stopping by & I hope the start of your summer is bright and sunny. CHEERS TO A HAPPY & HEALTHY DAY!
