{Project 25 recipes} Salted apple and cucumber salad
We went to The Wo.lf Pa.ck as a team early in Jan.
It's a burger place (DIVINE!) and you can choose any sides to go with your burger.
(I had a bacon and avo burger, with a salty apple and cucumber salad side).
Well, it was delicious and refreshing!
And it felt healthy and different.
So I recreated it when we were in Ballito.
Chop up about equal amounts of cucumber and Granny Smith apples. I did one towards the end of the holiday with Golden Delicious apples - don't bother.... it's got to be nice and tart for the flavours to combine properly.
The bowl pictured above is very deep so I could do enough for all of us in the one bowl.
I added a spice called smoky barbeque spice (found at Pick and Pay - you all know of my deep and abiding love for P&P) (but plain old salt and pepper will do just nicely) and two tablespoons of ... again, P&P's Greek vinaigrette.
DELICIOUS!
I had this salad probably 8 of our 10 days there.
Try it and let me know what you think.
