Cucumber and Parsley Salad

1 Cucumber Peeled

2 Tbsp. Diced Pearl Onion

2 Tbsp Olive

1 Tbsp Lemon Juice

1 Tbsp Vinegar – If you have some chive infused vinegar this would be great here. Otherwise Balsamic or Red Wine Vinegar would be a great choice

¼  Cup Minced Garlic Scapes – If you don’t have any scapes left from last week, you can substitute Scallion

½ bunch of Parsley Minced

½ Tsp Salt

Pepper to taste


Take cucumber and cut it in half lengthwise then remove the seeds with a spoon (this is optional as I eat the seeds and they are delicious) and slice crosswise very thinly. Add salt and place into a bowl and set aside.

Dice the pearl onion and mince the garlic scapes. Combine with the minced parsley and set aside. 

Mix together lemon juice, vinegar and oil. Whisk and then pour over cucumbers. Toss onion/garlic/herb mixture into the cucumbers and toss thoroughly to ensure a light coating on all the ingredients. Add pepper to taste.
