Cucumber Noodle Greek Salad

Greek salads have always been one of our dietary defaults. So much so, that we've decided it's time to spruce it up a bit. Rather than using the traditional chopped lettuce base that we're accustomed to, we ditched the lettuce entirely and replaced it with spiralized cucumber noodles. If zucchini and squash can do it, why can't cucumbers!? Try the recipe below for a new spin on your favorite classic. 

Ingredients (serves 1):

  • 1 large cucumber
  • 10 cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup yellow onions, diced
  • 5 Kalamata olives, halved 
  • 2 tablespoons feta cheese 
  • Dill (to taste) 
  • Thyme (about 2 pinches) 
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar 

Directions:

  1. Wash cucumber and slice off both ends, flatly and evenly. Halve cucumber and send through spiralizer. Place cucumber noodles in bowl. 
  2. Add tomatoes, onions, and olives to bowl. Add thyme and dill. Mix together so all ingredients appear evenly distributed. 
  3. Add feta on top.
  4. Enjoy!
