Cucumber Salad

The best part about cucumber salad is it tastes better the next day. I like to make my salad dish the night before, so it has all night to sit and marinate.

It also tastes better when it is cold so make sure to serve it right out of the fridge. The colder it is, the better.

Sweet and Tangy Carrot Salad

Made with honey, lemon, and crushed red pepper these carrots are delightfully sweet, and a little spicy. But don’t worry, if you are not a fan of the heat, this recipe is just as delicious without the pepper flakes.
