Gaby’s cucumber salad recipe is the best cucumber salad I’ve ever had! It’s made with crisp cucumber and creamy avocado tossed in a simple balsamic vinegar dressing. Recipe yields 4 servings.
Ingredient:
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 small-to-medium cloves garlic, pressed or minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 ripe avocado, pitted and sliced or diced
4 Persian cucumbers or 2 medium English cucumbers (12 ounces), thinly sliced
Optional additions: 1 to 2 cups arugula, ½ cup halved cherry tomatoes, and/or 1 to 2 chopped radishes
