Cucumber salad

It was such a refreshing taste that makes a perfect starter dish. The ingredients complement each other well. Perfect for a picnic on a sunny day.

In honor of our First Lady's Healthy School Lunches and Lets Move Programs - my student's Charter Schools are promoting her efforts. Here's how.All students - especially the culinary students - were charged with creating an easy, delicious, healthy lunch option. Then, they were to present and explain the nutritional benefits of their dish to their schoolmates.Needless to say, mostly chilled salads were presented by my students. Everything from seafood salads, to pasta salads, to macaroni salads, to garden salads. I'll post those easy recipes as their pictures are edited. Posted below is one of my youngest students submissions.Every vegetable in his salad was organic and pulled directly from my gardens. "Quick, easy, nutritious and farm to table," were his primary selling points. Talk about healthy! So, if you love fresh, chilly, crispy, cheesy, zesty, tangy tasting vegetables - you'll love this incredibly simple recipe! Serve same day or, at a maximum, overnight. Otherwise the vinager will soften your vegetables. Or, simply serve dressing to the side for a longer shelf life.

Chinese Tofu Sheets and Cucumber Salad is one of those dishes that always disappears first at gatherings. It’s got the perfect balance—spicy, savory, sweet, and tangy. What really makes it special is that unique tofu sheet.They’re an amazing vegetarian ingredient made from soybeans—low in fat, loaded with protein, and rich in calcium and iron. Enjoy!

Best of all, it only takes about 10 minutes to whip up! I’m excited for you to try this simple yet delicious salad. Let’s get started and bring those flavors to life! Enjoy!

Just doesn't get better than walking out to my garden, picking everything fresh, and making a refreshing summer salad.

Crisp, healthy, refreshing salad to enjoy anytime! #GoldenApron23

This is a nice, refreshing side dish for a summer meal. I use cucumbers from our garden when possible, but it's just as good with store bought.

A light "chunky" side dish to compliment most grilled BBQ meals or serve with Italian dishes. The fresh basil gives it a nice flavor. Add a “hint of mint” (instead of basil) and black olives for a slight, cool refreshing taste, especially with Mediterranean dishes of lamb, grilled chorizo and/or seafood.

I decided not to garden this year. Thankfully, I have a generous neighbor who provides me with the bounty from his. He provides the cucumbers, I provide the salad. Sounds like a good tradeoff to me.Cucumber salad is cold, refreshing, and perfect as a side to any BBQ dish, but perfectly good on its own. A glass of rose doesn't hurt.

Tried with different flavors tonight, thought it would be a fun idea to create a all red salad 😃 Gluten free

Quick seafood salad with the fresh taste of dill. You can serve this as a side or it stands as a main by itself.

I was looking for something I could make that had oodles of delicious feta cheese, but also kept it fresh/light! So I made this version of Greek Salad. Enjoy!!

My Moma’n love, loved this salad at one of our local cafeteria style restaurants, when she developed diabetes, she’d still eat it and it would drive her sugar sky high. So, I, being the bestest daughter’n love, started making it for her without the “sugar driver upper”.I took this salad to a church social and it got rave reviews.Hope y’all like it too!

It's crisper cleaner day here in the O'Brien Shire today so ya'll know what that means!Only fresh chilled tangy salads are on the roster! Easy, cheesy, delicious, chilly and ever SO healthy salads! My seven year old students both made this salad and took it to the homeless shelter super early this morning!Man did it go fast! Again, fresh, crispy, tangy and delicious! So satisfying!P.S., this easy recipe was quadrupled by my students and it made a TON of salad! 15 to 20 servings per batch with fresh homemade chips. Excelent work sweet baby girls! Just excellent! Zesty and delicious!

A refreshing salad: Tomatoes, onions, cucumber and bread cubes are seasoned with basil balsamic dressing.

First, let me say this delicious recipe is not my own. It belongs to my big brother Jase [aka grill-master on this site] Go ahead. Check him out. He's one hell of a great Chef!Additional ingredients were added from his original recipe but that's pretty much what you get when you allow ten six year old budding Chefs to run amock in your fridges crispers. Anyway, thanks Jase! My culinary students had a blast with your recipe and this is the second time they've made it in a week! Delicious!

This salad is very simple to prepare, but it has a rich flavor, is very refreshing, and is the perfect complement to breaded, grilled, or fried beef, chicken, or pork.

This recipe is great for hot days and always a hit at bbqs......good way to use fresh veggies from the garden and very simple to throw together ahead of time :-)

My partner is a big chicken and sweet potato fan. This meal is great for her as she also loves a great salad. Why not have it all at once right?

Very good tasted n crunchy with the sprinkle peanut,😋😋

A German side dish or salad that often gets overlooked, but makes for a great accompaniment to most German meals. A great side too with grilled meats, especially with brats and chicken. It's very popular when “cukes” are in season / garden harvested, but year-round enjoyment when store bought should also be considered.

was perfect n healthy #5weeksChallenge
