Tempt My Tummy Tuesday – Lemony Cucumber Salad

So glad you could join us for Tempt My Tummy Tuesday, hosted by At The Well.

Summer will be ending soon.  But for now, it is still picnic and fun time for a few more weeks!  I recently came across a great recipe for either a picnic or a nice summertime meal with the family.  The best thing about this recipe: no oven involved!  No need to heat up the house during these dog days of summer. I hope you enjoy.

Lemony Cucumber Salad

Ingredients:

• 1 cup thinly sliced radishes
• 1/2 cup finely chopped orange bell pepper
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
• 2 English cucumbers, thinly sliced (about 6 cups)
• 1 tsp finely grated lemon rind
• 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 1/2 tsp white wine vinegar
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

1. Combine first 4 ingredients in a large bowl.
2. Combine lemon rind and remaining ingredients in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk.  Pour over cucumber mixture; toss well to coat.

Serve at room temperature or chilled.  Yield: 8 servings (2/3 cup serving size.)
