Calories: 78kcal
Ingredients
- 4 mini cucumbers
- 1 bunch radishes
- 1/4 cup fresh mint
- 1 tbsp fresh chive
- 2 tbsp red onion
Tangy Greek Yogurt Dressing
- 1/4 cup full fat greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Start by slicing the cucumbers and radishes into thin rounds. Ideally, you want them sliced uniformly. Dice the red onion and set aside.
- Add the diced onion to a small bowl and cover with lemon juice (about 2 tbsp) and a generous pinch of salt. Allow to soak for 5 minutes
- In a small bowl whisk together the greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper for the dressing and set aside.
- In a medium bowl combine the cucumbers and radishes, mint, and chives, strain the onions and add to the bowl. Top with dressing and gently stir everything together.
- Add a pinch of salt and pepper to the top and serve.
Notes
- Make ahead tip: Both the radishes and the cucumbers will quickly absorb the moisture from the dressing and begin to soften/lose their crunch. Add the dressing right before serving
- Storage tip: This salad will keep for 3-4 days in the fridge but the cucumbers will begin to lose their crunch. You also may see more liquid pooling at the bottom of your container, you can just drain that off.
