Most cucumber salads contain onions, tomatoes, and vinegar. However, we used fresh mint and sesame seeds instead of making a Vegan Cucumber Salad with the same old bland ingredients. Although cucumbers are used as a vegetable, botanically speaking, they are considered a fruit. This is because they contain tiny seeds and grow from the plant's flower.
Cucumbers are cool and refreshing. So it's no wonder that they are the perfect fruit to make a salad. This healthy ingredient is low-calorie and contains several beneficial compounds, including vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. In addition, cucumbers stimulate hydration, can support weight loss, and may even decrease blood sugar levels.
Ingredients
4 tablespoons Olive Oil
4 tablespoons fresh Lime Juice
1 teaspoon Salt
1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
2 medium Cucumbers, thinly sliced
1/2 cup Fresh Mint Leaves, roughly chopped or torn minced
2 tablespoons White Sesame Seeds
