This healthy, light cucumber salad is quick to throw together and a refreshing dish to serve at any event!

I usually like to serve something cool and crisp at a big gathering, especially during the summer. It gives guests a nice alternative from the heavy burgers, potato salads, and casseroles often piled on party tables.

Even though I love a simple salad, I try to mix it up and not bring the same old garden salad or chopped veggie tray to every party. Eating healthy should be just as yummy!
