For my simple salad recipes I took inspiration from you all telling me how bags of lettuce leaves are your main fridge throw-away. This Cucumber Salad is made up of just a few ingredients with a longer shelf-life – not a limp leaf in sight! The simple dressing is made up of natural or Greek yoghurt, dill, garlic and lemon juice, with the main salad ingredients just cucumber, peppers and onions, which keep well so you can always come up with a salad, even when you haven’t been grocery shopping. Salads don’t have to be overly elaborate to be delicious!
Why you’ll love this Cucumber Salad recipe
⭐️ Colourful and fresh
Greek Salad
Crunchy Cabbage Salad {with Peanut Dressing}
Mexican Style Salad {with Zesty Lime Dressing}
Quinoa Salad {with Asparagus, Peas & Courgette}
⭐️ Budget friendly ⭐️ Easy to keep ingredients In the freezer I wouldn’t recommend freezing this salad as it will go far too watery when defrosted.
How:
Cut them up, put them in a colander, sprinkle with a LOT of salt (about 2tsp). Leave for 10 mins, then rinse really really well before carrying on. This draws the water out so it doesn’t come out into the main salad.
