Cucumber Salad Recipe

orange divide


This cucumber salad recipe is one of my favorite summer salad recipes.


It is an easy summer salad, or any time of the year salad for that matter, and combines lots of healthy ingredients and fresh herbs.


Vegetable salad recipes are an easy way to add nutrition to your family meals.



This is another of those versatile recipes that fits into so many diet plans. It is an great diabetic recipe, a heart healthy recipe, a low fat recipe and fairly low carb too.


2 cucumbers, peeled and diced
1 large tomato, cored and chopped
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup plain low-fat yogurt or sour cream
4 scallions, minced
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped fine
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves, chopped fine
1 clove garlic, chopped fine
black pepper to taste

Combine the cucumbers and tomato in a salad bowl. In another bowl, mix together the lemon juice, yogurt or sour cream, scallions, mint, parsley, garlic and black pepper. Pour over the cucumbers and tomato. Mix gently.
