Strawberry Cucumber Salad

June 21, 2019 by Dinner Tonight

This Strawberry Cucumber Salad is the perfect summer time dish to bring to any BBQ or pot luck! This dish focuses on seasonal produce, bright and refreshing flavors, and really focuses on fiber!

When thinking of the Strawberry Cucumber Salad I wanted to create a dish that was going to be a light side dish to compliment any barbecue, crawfish boil, or summer get together! This dish is easily doubled to make enough for everyone. It also uses seasonal produce which means its a cost effective side dish this summer.
