Crunchy and Refreshing Cucumber and Radish Salad
This crunchy and refreshing cucumber and radish salad is the perfect side dish for any meal. It's light, healthy, and packed with flavor. The radishes add a bit of spice, the cucumbers add a bit of sweetness, and the red onion and cilantro add a bit of brightness. The olive oil and apple cider vinegar dressing ties everything together perfectly.
This salad was inspired by a trip I took to Thailand. I was at a street market in Bangkok when I came across a vendor selling a similar salad. I was immediately drawn to the bright colors and the fresh flavors. I asked the vendor for the recipe, and he was kind enough to share it with me. I've been making this salad ever since, and it's always a hit with my friends and family.
