Notes

  1. Depending on the type of cucumber you are able to get, you may be able to leave the skin on and the seeds in. If you are unsure which type you have, a simple taste test before you cut up the rest of the cucumber will solve that problem for you. 
  2. This salad does not need a salad dressing. However, if you absolutely want one then this yoghurt dressing is a great choice. 
  3. If you don't like raw onions, you can easily substitute them with some onion powder.
