PERSIAN CUCUMBER SALAD

This is without a doubt one of my favorite light & healthy salads – it’s the perfect combo in each bite. A little crunchy, salty, creamy and it’s SO good.

Here is how I made it:

1.Thinly slice or dice 5-6 Persian cucumbers. Add them to a mason jar or salad bowl.

2.Cube up a small avocado and add to the jar/bowl. You can always add more avocado, too.

3.Thinly slice 1-2 scallions (you’ll both the white and green parts of this).

4.Finely chop a large handful fresh dill & fresh mint (this yield get you about 1/3 cup of each herb once chopped)

5.Add 2oz toasted and cooled walnuts (pecans or pistachios would be great too), 1.5 oz feta cheese, and 2 tbsp sumac for a nice citrusy touch.

6.Dress it up with the zest of a full lemon, the juice of 1/2 lemon, 3-4 tbsp of a GOOD olive oil, a couple pinches salt & pepper.

Give it a really good shake (or toss!) and enjoy.

If you try it, let me know on SHREDHAPPENS.

ENJOY.
