Ingredients
4 mini or Persian cucumbers, sliced
1 lb small radishes, thinly sliced
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1/3 cup finely chopped red onion
1 cup chopped fresh dill
2 lemons (juiced and zested, about 3 tbsp juice)
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp honey
Instructions
Finely slice the mini cucumbers and radishes into a large bowl.
Thinly slice the green onions and thinly chop the red onion.
Combine all vegetables in the bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, lemon zest, olive oil, honey, and salt.
Pour dressing over the salad and toss gently.
Stir in the chopped dill.
Serve immediately or chill for 10-15 minutes to enhance flavor.

Notes
Use Persian cucumbers for less moisture and better crunch.
Toss dressing right before serving to avoid sogginess.

Variation: Substitute honey with maple syrup for a vegan option.
Serving suggestion: Pair with grilled fish, chicken, or as a standalone crudité.
