Chopped Cucumber Salad
Make this refreshing and delicious Chopped Cucumber Salad for a tasty summer side. It’s whole 30, paleo, and also makes for a fun cucumber salsa!

There is some mugginess happening, you guys. What gives?! I thought California was supposed to be all about that dry heat. You know, that anti-humidity, no frizz kinda life. Well apparently Cali decided to keep us on our toes.

Chopped Cucumber Salad

I’ve been in the kitchen cooking, sweating, cooking sweating. My kids have a constant stick to them. I’m sorry guys, I’m not normally like this. I’m not normally this complainy. Snap out of it, Lindsay.

Yesterday I was sitting in the kitchen and wanted something that was light and refreshing and utterly delicious. I chopped a bunch of veggies, threw it in a bowl and couldn’t be more obsessed.

GUYS!! First this is the perfect summer salad. Refreshing and no heat needed. Second, I love how versatile this is! It makes a really great side, or throw it on TOP of things as a fun cucumber salsa. Top your salmon with a few scoops of cucumber salsa and it makes the best healthy, whole 30, and paleo dish! Seriously this is so delicious and brings the partaay.

    Zucchinis are my favorite vegetable! They are SUCH a great salad base if I get bored of lettuce or any other greens!

    Ooh, I love cucumber salads! They always taste so fresh and delicious. Heck, you can have it on a toasted flatbread and it would be amazing!
