It’s so easy to make; just slice, pate, drizzle.

Cucumber – I prefer to use English cucumbers for this salad. English cucumbers are thinner than regular cucumbers and also have a thinner skin. They also have fewer and smaller seeds. They are packaged in a tight plastic wrap covering to protect the thin delicate skin.
Fresh Mint Leaves – I find that fresh mint leaves add a little extra freshness to cucumbers.

Let’s Make Strawberry Cucumber Salad

To make this salad you simply wash and slice the cucumber and the strawberries and layer them on a serving platter.

To make the dressing, combine equal parts balsamic vinegar and honey and drizzle over the salad right before serving.
