Lettuce, Apple, and Cucumber Salad

Inspired by my salad yesterday, today, too, I made a salad with hitherto unused ingredients - apples and cucumbers. You can prevent apples from going brown after you cut them by rubbing some lemon/lime juice on them.

Lettuce, Apple, and Cucumber Salad

Ingredients:
  • 2 cups iceberg lettuce, chopped finely
  • 1/2 a large apple, chopped
  • 1 cucumber, sliced (skin on)
  • 2 tablespoons black olives, chopped
  • Handful of mint
  • Tablespoon of olive oil
  • Juice of two limes
  • Handful of fennel leaves
  • Handful of walnuts
To make:
  • Chop and mix all the veggies.
  • Juice the two limes - The juice of one of them will be poured over the chopped apples to prevent them from going brown.
  • The juice of the other lime will be combined with the olive oil to make a dressing.
  • Pour over the salad.
  • Garnish with walnuts, mint and fennel leaves.

  1. Now you are making me drool...I will swap out the fennel for some celery and dill, that's what I have on hand and instead of the olives I can throw in some red radish. Your salads are lovely.
