today I’m going to show you how to make a Mediterranean cucumber salad this is a simple salad to make and it has all those bright bold Mediterranean flavors that you are going to love to start out what we’re going to do is chop up all of our vegetables i am not going to list all of the ingredients in the video but you can find them down in the description so we’re going to chop prep everything get it all ready and then one thing that I like to do is I like to add it into a big bowl for mixing i know it seems excessive but I just find it’s a lot easier for mixing your salad together if you put it into a big bowl plus they’re really simple to wash so I throw it into here and then once the vegetables are in there I like to use lemon zest and lemon juice this is going to give it that punch of flavor that is that Mediterranean food is known for now if you squeeze your lemons without um without a lemon juicer just do it into your hand so that you can get all the seeds into your hand uh so again lemon juice and lemon zest for that big bright flavor that you’re looking for we’re going to add in the rest of our ingredients there is fresh herbs there’s dried herbs olive oil all the all the things that make a delicious salad and then once everything is in we’re just going to mix this together you can use a spoon to do it like I did or just use your bowl to flip it and turn it mix this all together and then we’re going to add it into our serving dish one thing that you’ll notice that I don’t have in here but that is in the recipe is feta cheese i don’t add that till the very end and it’s just because if you do I feel like it breaks up the feta cheese and makes it this might be just an anal thing but I think it makes the salad look kind of sloppy so I don’t add the feta cheese until the very end you can see I’ll add it in here and that’s it your salad’s done you can see in just a couple minutes I threw that together now as always of course don’t forget to subscribe you do not want to miss any of the new videos that are coming out
