PERSIAN CUCUMBER SALAD



PERSIAN CUCUMBER SALAD
.
Cucumber salads are having their moment (finally!) this summer so, lets make my favorite version with the best textures and favors in each bite. You get the perfect balance of crunchy, salty, creamy in each bite with this and its SO good.
.
Here is how I made it:
.
1.Thinly slice 6 Persian or mini cucumbers. Add to a large mason jar or bowl.
.
2.Cube up 1 avocado into small chunk and add to the jar/bowl.
.
3.Thinly slice 1 scallion (you’ll want the full thing – the white and green).
.
4.Super finely chop a handful of fresh dill and fresh mint (about 1/3 cup of each chopped)
.
5.Add 2 ounces of toasted and cooled walnuts, 1.5 oz feta cheese, and 2 tbsp sumac.
.
6.Dress with the zest of a full lemon, the juice of 1/2 lemon, 3-4 tablespoons of GOOD olive oil, a couple pinches salt, and pepper.
.
Give it a good shakey shake (or toss!) and enjoy.
.
If you try it, be sure to let me know on SHREDHAPPENS.
.
ENJOY.
