  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pint of fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 2 large cucumbers, sliced thinly
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Start by washing the fresh strawberries and cucumbers thoroughly. Slice the strawberries into thin, appealing pieces, and slice the cucumbers similarly for a fresh, crunchy texture.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, fresh lime juice, and olive oil until well combined. Season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. This honey-lime vinaigrette adds a sweet, tangy flavor that elevates the salad.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced strawberries, cucumbers, and chopped mint leaves. Drizzle the honey-lime vinaigrette over the top and toss gently to coat everything evenly. For extra richness, sprinkle some crumbled feta cheese.
  4. Refrigerate the salad for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld. Serve in your favorite bowls, garnished with additional mint leaves if desired.

Notes

  • Replace feta with toasted nuts like almonds or pistachios for added crunch.
  • Add slices of red onion for a savory twist.
  • Use agave syrup instead of honey for a vegan option.
  • Adjust the lime juice and honey ratio to suit your taste for a more or less tangy salad.
