Tastes like nothing. Just cucumbers. I expected more flavor.
Cmon! How can you say it tastes like nothing? It’s a salad! It’s not meant to be a full meal.
I think it’s supposed to be light and refreshing. Sometimes simple is best! Maybe add some feta or tomatoes?
I think you forgot to say how many servings this makes? 🤔
Good catch! 😊 Usually, recipes say it makes about 4 servings.
Servings? Who cares! It’s just cucumbers and mint, just make it! 🤷♂️
Not a fan of cucumbers… next time I will try it with carrots.
But cucumbers are so refreshing! Carrots are kinda sweet, it won’t taste the same.
That’s a great idea! Carrots will add a nice crunch too. Hope it turns out tasty!
I didn’t have mint, so I used basil instead. It was still nice, but not the same.
Basil sounds interesting! I might try that next time. Thanks for sharing your twist!
I dunno, man. Basil with cucumbers? That’s kinda weird, don’t you think?
Did you know cucumbers are 95% water? This is a great way to hydrate!
Easy and healthy. Just make sure to chop the mint real fine.
I tried this with some extra garlic and it turned out great! The mint really makes it fresh!
I dunno, I thought cucumbers were supposed to be crunchy. This looks kind of mushy. 🤔
This salad is so refreshing! Perfect for summer. 🌞
Cucumbers are my favorite! I eat them every day. Thanks for this!
Cucumbers are great! I never thought of adding mint. I’ll try it out, thanks!
