Cucumber Salad made with seedless English cucumbers & red onion in an Asian honey mustard dressing is a tasty light salad that's perfect for cookouts.

Summer is one of my favorite times of the year for many reasons, but mainly because it's a time when fruits and vegetables are growing in abundance.

I don't harvest much myself because the deer would eat everything I would try to plant, so I just grow tomatoes and herbs on my deck.

However, I wish I could grown more because I LOVE cucumbers; especially when paired with a light dressing like this Asian Cucumber Salad.

Lucky for me, I live in the highlands of New Jersey where farm stands pop up this time of year all over the place. 

Recently, I had purchased a few English cucumbers and wanted to make a new salad with them. We prefer the English cucumbers because they're seedless.

Since my husband suffers from diverticulitis, I try to cut back on seedy fruits and vegetables as much as possible. Some of the best salads are the simplest ones to make too, like this Asian Cucumber Salad.

This salad is also perfect for those Summer cookouts because it's dairy and gluten free. ~Enjoy!

How do you make Asian Cucumber Salad?

To make the dressing, combine honey, rice wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise and a little sesame oil in a bowl and whisk until smooth.

You can also add the ingredients to a mini food processor and blend; which is the method I prefer using.

See how easy this Asian Cucumber Salad is to make and it is deliciously light, crispy and refreshing; especially on a hot day.

If you'd like, you can also garnish with some sesame seeds, but like I mentioned we don't like to add any unnecessary seeds to our diet.
