Heat wave is going strong right now and if you know me, I do not do well in the heat. I try to keep things cool during the summer and avoid turning on the oven and make hot food (I may just order takeout instead). It can be hard to find refreshing meals to make but I love refreshing watermelon and cucumber salad.
It is a savory dish that has the perfect amount of sweet and spice, my favorite combo!
Ingredients
– tbs avocado oil (about 2 tbs)
– lime juice (about 1 tbs)
– balsamic vinegar (about 1 tbs)
This is the perfect side dish to have with summer meals and it is so easy to make. It takes minutes to put together with little effort. It is sure to be a crowd pleaser.

– thinly sliced cucumber
-thinly sliced onion
-cubed mozzarella cheese (fresh or low moisture)
