Purslane, Cucumber, and Feta Salad image

Fresh and flavorful purslane combines with crunchy cucumber and salty feta for a lovely salad. Purslane has more omega-3s than any other leafy green, so I try to eat a lot of it when it's in season each summer.

I'm always looking for new ways to use purslane, and this salad is a great option. It's healthy, refreshing, and delicious.

This salad is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. The purslane is hidden in the dressing, so they won't even know they're eating it.

I'm not a big fan of purslane, but I really enjoyed this salad. The dressing is what really makes it.

I was really excited to try this salad, but I was disappointed. The purslane was tough and the dressing was too oily.

This salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. The purslane didn't have much flavor and the dressing was not very flavorful.
