About Cucumber and red onion salad

Cucumber and Red Onion Salad is a refreshing dish commonly found in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine. This simple salad typically consists of crisp cucumber slices, thinly sliced red onions, and a light dressing made with olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice, or yogurt. Fresh herbs like dill or parsley may be added for extra flavor. It’s a low-calorie, hydrating option, as cucumbers are over 90% water and rich in vitamins K and C, while red onions provide antioxidants and compounds that may support heart health. Olive oil used in the dressing offers healthy monounsaturated fats. While highly nutritious, moderation is key to limiting sodium if salt is included in the recipe. Perfect as a side dish or light appetizer, this salad delivers balance between flavor and wellness without overwhelming the palate or the diet.
