Balsamic Cucumber Salad image

This is a quick, lite cucumber salad. The balsamic vinegar adds a zing! I made this recipe because I was looking for quick healthy snack and because mom keeps telling me to eat my veggies! :) Many cucumber salads call for very thin slices which adds to prep time. Here you just dice them quickly!

1 clove garlic, minced
black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a bowl (leaving out cucumber).

I'm not a huge fan of dill, so I used parsley instead. It was still delicious.

This salad was a refreshing and delicious summer side dish. The cucumbers were crisp and flavorful, and the dressing was a perfect balance of sweet and tangy. I used fresh dill from my garden, which really took the flavor up a notch. My family loved
