Crisp Cabbage and Cucumber Salad
Experience the refreshing crunch of this Crisp Cabbage and Cucumber Salad! This vibrant side dish combines the crunch of fresh green cabbage and cucumber with the zest of red onion and dill.

Ingredients
- Green cabbage
- 1/2 head, thinly sliced
- Cucumber
- 1, medium-sized, thinly sliced
- Red onion
- 1/2, thinly sliced
- Fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped
- Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons
- Olive oil
- 1/4 cup
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon, or to taste
- Black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon, or to taste
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the thinly sliced cabbage, cucumber, red onion, and fresh dill. Toss to mix the ingredients evenly.
- To prepare the dressing, in a separate small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- Gradually pour the dressing over the cabbage and cucumber mixture, tossing consistently to ensure all the ingredients are well coated.
- Refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the salad to absorb the dressing and the flavors to meld together.
- Before serving, give the salad another good toss to redistribute the dressing. Serve chilled and enjoy!
Tips
- For an extra touch of sweetness, add a thinly sliced apple to the salad.
- If you prefer a more creamy salad, you can add a dollop of Greek yogurt to the dressing.
