From our skinny table to yours ...

Today we're whipping up one of our favorite summer side dishes.  This is so deliciously simple as it comes together in under 5 minutes & is made up of just cucumbers & thinly sliced red onion!  These two fresh ingredients pair perfectly together for a light side dish that would go great served along side our Avocado Topped Turkey Burger or BBQ Pulled Chicken.

When making a simple salad, we always go the extra mile and make our own salad dressing.  Not only is it so much healthier, it tastes SO much better!  Once you start making your own dressing, you'll never go back to bottled.  This one comes together super quick too.  Simply whisk together equal parts of red wine vineger and extra virgin olive oil.  Mix in a touch of honey for sweetness and a dollop of honey mustard for creaminess & season it up with garlic, onion, salt & pepper.

Hope you enjoy!
