Description
A refreshing salad that combines the crispness of cucumbers with the sweetness of apples, dressed in a tangy honey vinaigrette.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 medium English cucumber, chopped (about 2 ½ cups)
- 2 red apples, cored and chopped
- 1 Tablespoon honey
- ½ Tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Start by chopping the apples and cucumber into small bite-sized pieces. You can leave the skin on for extra nutrients or peel it off if you prefer a smoother texture. Transfer the chopped apples and cucumber to a large bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, and honey until combined. This dressing is what sings in your salad, bringing balanced sweetness with a touch of tang.
- Pour the dressing over the chopped fruits and veggies, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. The dressing will add a beautiful sheen to the salad!
- Gently stir everything together until the salad is fully coated in the dressing. This is where the magic happens—watch as the cucumbers and apples transform into a vibrant medley.
- Serve immediately for the freshest taste, or chill in the fridge for up to 30 minutes to let the flavors meld together beautifully.
Notes
This salad is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a day. The apples may brown slightly, but the flavor will still be delightful.
