On a warm Summer day like today, a salad like this is refreshing, healthy, and perfect! If you follow me on Facebook or Twitter you know I’ve been in NYC the last few weeks. I heard about a new Whole Foods opening on 57th st. and I headed over to check it out. I found two things… a beautiful new store and all the produce to make this simple salad.
Cucumber Salad
Serves 6
2 cucumbers
6 oz. cherry or grape tomatoes, halved or quartered
about 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
1 tbsp. sugar
1/2 tbsp. salt
1/8 cup white wine vinegar
Peel the cucumbers and slice in half lengthwise. With a spoon scoop out the seeds down the center of the cucumber. Slice the cucumber and place in a bowl. Add in all the rest of the ingredients and stir. Chill for a few hours and serve chilled.
The salad looks so fresh and the colors of the tomato really pop. Is it okay to add honey for the dressing?
Thank you and of course it’s ok if you would like to add honey! I always encourage people to make tweaks and additions to my recipes 🙂
