Description

A crisp, refreshing salad with a tangy 4-ingredient vinaigrette. Perfect for summer BBQs, meal prep, or anyone keeping an eye on blood sugar.


Ingredients

For the salad:

  • 2 cucumbers, thinly sliced
  • 8 radishes (about 1 bunch), thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup fresh dill, chopped
  • 3 scallions, diced

For the dressing:

  • 1/3 cup avocado oil
  • 3 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • 1 garlic clove, minced (reduce to half if the cloves are large)
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt *additional to taste
  • 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper


Instructions

  1. Slice the vegetables. Thinly slice the cucumbers and radishes using a mandoline or sharp knife. Dice the scallions and chop the dill.
  2. Make the dressing. In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the avocado oil, apple cider vinegar, dijon mustard, and minced garlic. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Toss and serve. Add the cucumbers, radishes, scallions, and dill to a large bowl. Pour about three-quarters of the dressing over and toss gently to coat. Serve the remaining dressing on the side for those who want extra. Add extra salt to taste.

Notes

Make-ahead tip: Store sliced vegetables and dressing separately. Toss just before serving.

Add-ins: Toasted sunflower seeds, pepitas, feta or diced avocado
