Equipment

  • 1 mandoline slicer

Ingredients

Cucumber Salad

  • 3 cups cucumbers thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup green onions thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup radishes thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh herbs minced, I used basil, parsley & chives
  • 1-2 jalapeños minced
  • 1/2 cup Green Goddess Dressing or to taste

Green Goddess Dressing

  • 3/4 cup mayo
  • 3/4 cup sour cream OR plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup fresh herbs I used a combination of parsley & basil
  • 3 Tablespoons fresh chives chopped
  • 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons anchovy paste
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

Green Goddess Dressing

  • Add all ingredients to a food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary.

Cucumber Salad

  • Slice the cucumbers, radishes, and onions into thin slices. I used a mandoline on the cucumbers for super thin, even slices, but a sharp knife will also work.
  • Mince the jalapeños, removing seeds and membranes as desired for less heat. Mince the fresh herbs.
  • Assemble the vegetables in a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss to coat.
  • Garnish with minced herbs and fresh cracked pepper as desired.

Notes

Recipe Variations

  • Use any type of cucumbers (I used Persian)
  • Add sliced avocado
  • Substitute sliced red onion for the green onion
  • Add broccoli, pea pods, or edamame for extra green color
  • Add crumbled feta or queso fresco
  • Add garlic powder, onion powder, Tajin, or any of your favorite seasoning blends
  • Add shredded chicken, shrimp, or any of your favorite proteins

Storage Tips

Leftover Cucumber Salad can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator and is best eaten within 2-3 days. I would not recommend freezing.
