Crunchy Cucumber, Celery, & Red Bell Pepper Salad with Cumin & Fresh Mint















This salad is cool, crunchy and refreshing.  Perfect for a hot day, or when you need something colorful to brighten things up a bit.  The original recipe comes from a popular NY cafe, Once Upon A Tart.


A simple, but uniquely flavored, thanks to the cumin, vinaigrette, livens things up a bit.

This would be good with some shaved radishes, or julienned sticks of jicama.  

I found that it tasted best after it sat for awhile. I also added a pinch of sugar to the dressing to cut the acidity a bit.
