Experience the crisp and refreshing union of flavors in our Cucumber and Apple Salad, a delightful medley that showcases the best of both fruits and vegetables. Begin by thinly slicing crisp cucumbers, allowing their cool and mild flavor to form the base of the salad.
Add sweetness and a satisfying crunch by incorporating thinly sliced apples, choosing a variety with a balance of sweetness and tartness. The apples complement the cucumbers, creating a harmonious blend of textures and flavors.
Enhance the salad with a handful of fresh dill or mint, finely chopped to infuse the dish with an aromatic and herbaceous essence. The herbs add a layer of complexity, elevating the overall freshness of the salad.
For a creamy element, toss the ingredients in a light yogurt or Greek yogurt dressing. The yogurt adds a velvety richness that ties all the components together, creating a luscious and satisfying texture.
Consider introducing a nutty component, such as toasted walnuts or almonds, for an extra layer of flavor and crunch. The nuts contribute depth to the salad, making it a more satisfying and well-rounded dish.
Create a simple vinaigrette using extra-virgin olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and a touch of honey or maple syrup. The vinaigrette enhances the overall flavor profile with a balance of acidity and sweetness.
Gently toss the ingredients in the dressing, ensuring an even coating. The result is a visually vibrant Cucumber and Apple Salad that’s perfect for a light lunch, a refreshing side dish, or a picnic treat.
Immerse yourself in the delightful combination of crisp cucumbers, sweet apples, fresh herbs, creamy yogurt, and nutty goodness. This salad promises a burst of flavors and textures, making it a versatile and satisfying addition to your culinary repertoire.

After reading this I thought that this couldn't taste good. I WAS WRONG! It's a light & refreshing salad.
I added the sweet onion as Steve suggested, I really liked it, it added a little bit of savory. I’m not a real sweets person, so the onion added just the right touch. Will definitely make this again.
I made this as a side dish to steak with samosas and chimichurri sauce. This salad tastes amazing! It's very cool and refreshing and a great complement to heavier dishes...perfect for the summer!
We enjoyed this recipe. My 10 year old said it was an amazing salad. I liked the salad a lot and enjoyed that it was fast and easy.
Really good. Added a diced sweet onion to the mix. Maybe used a little too much vinaigrette but still very tasty.
This is strangely delicious. Give it a try.
I made this tonight, for our salad with dinner, and it was wonderful! My boyfriend and I are huge salad people and we were both thrilled to have found a new recipe that is so easy to make and tastes so fresh and delicious. I never would have thought to put apples and cucumbers together but they really compliment each other. I already posted it on Facebook to share with friends and my boyfriend already called dibs on the leftovers so that he can take them to work for lunch tomorrow. Thank you so much for sharing! This is going to be on the menu regularly at our house!!
It was delicious as well as refreshing. This will be my lunch at least once a week!
Delicious! Everyone loved it!
