My Go To Cucumber Salad




  I make this salad all the time; cucumbers are inexpensive to buy and with the temperatures rising this salad is light and refreshing. It's only 87 calories a serving and I eat it as a side or use it to top power greens for a meal. This is a super easy recipe that keeps well in the frig... here's how I make it:



You'll need: rice vinegar, olive oil, one lemon, handful of parsley, 3 green onions, a cucumber and a bunch of radishes.


Peel, slice and quarter the cucumber.


Wash the radishes after removing the tops, cut the ends off and quarter them.


Coarsely chop parsley and include the stems.


Use the peeler to remove lemon zest 3-4 times, half the lemon and juice the both halves.

Add 2 tbsp. of rice vinegar.


Add 2 tbsp. of extra virgin olive oil.

Toss it, add sea salt to taste and refrigerate for an hour or longer. Super easy, simple flavors and so refreshing! Enjoy!
