Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 large English cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
  • ¼ cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • Pinch of sea salt

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Prepare the vegetables and fruit. Wash and slice the strawberries, then thinly slice the cucumber. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Make the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, black pepper, and sea salt until well combined.
  3. Combine the salad. Pour the dressing over the strawberry and cucumber mixture. Gently toss to coat everything evenly.
  4. Add the finishing touches. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and chopped mint leaves over the salad. Toss gently one more time to distribute evenly.
  5. Serve immediately or chill. This salad can be served right away or refrigerated for up to 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

For best results, use the freshest ingredients possible. English cucumbers work best because they have fewer seeds and thinner skin. If making ahead, wait to add mint until just before serving to keep it vibrant.
