Notes

This salad is refreshing and versatile, perfect for summer BBQs or as a healthy snack. Experiment with different ingredients like avocados for creaminess, or add a pinch of chili flakes for spice. Store leftover salad without dressing to keep cucumbers crispy; mix in the dressing just before serving. Serve chilled to enhance the refreshing taste. Consider pairing with grilled chicken or fish for a complete meal.
