One thing I love about summer is eating outside and nothing screams outside more than a cucumber salad that not only tastes amazing but is easy to make too. This one is so simple it screams to be made right now! Cucumber salad reminds me of childhood and is a staple in my house especially during warmer months. Isn’t it great the good memories food can bring back? I love using champagne vinegar! This salad is also a great side to take to a party and sounds super duper fancy. Who doesn’t love a good cucumber salad with champs vinegar? I know I do! And yes I said champs!
Did you know cucumbers have amazing health benefits? They are full of B vitamins and 95% water which not only makes them good for your body but your skin too!
