About the recipe

This delicious Mediterranean Cucumber Radish Salad is filled with crisp cucumbers, peppery radishes, and zesty spring onions, dressed with a creamy Greek yogurt dressing. It is ready in 10 minutes! Easy, right?!

Which season is this recipe best for?

Cucumber Radish Salad is best enjoyed during the spring and summer months when these fresh vegetables are in season.

Where can I buy the ingredients for this recipe?

You can find all the ingredients for Cucumber Radish Salad at your nearest grocery store or supermarket.

For the freshest produce, consider visiting your local farmers’ market.

I love to buy vegetables and fruits at farmers’ markets.

Can I substitute the ingredients in this recipe?

Feel free to customize this recipe to suit your taste preferences or dietary restrictions.

You can substitute Greek yogurt for mayonnaise if desired. It will be creamy and delicious, too! Sometimes I make this addition. 🙂

Additionally, you can add other seasonal vegetables such as cherry tomatoes or bell peppers for extra color and flavor.

Can I make this recipe part of a menu?

Absolutely! My Mediterranean Cucumber Radish Salad pairs well with various dishes, making it a great addition to any menu.

For an appetizer, serve my delicious Shrimp in Garlic Sauce, Spicy Salmon Tartare, or Tuna Carpaccio.

You can serve this salad with Simple Boiled Red Potatoes as a vegetarian meal. Alternatively, serve these Veal Cutlets or Pecan Crusted Salmon as the main dish.

For dessert, go with my favorite Raspberry Pavlova or Chocolate Raspberry Tart. So good!

Which drinks would you pair it with?

For a refreshing beverage to complement the crispness of the salad, consider serving it with a chilled glass of white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio.

As another option, a glass of sparkling water infused with lemon or cucumber makes for a refreshing non-alcoholic addition.

How long can I store this recipe leftovers?

While it’s best to enjoy this salad fresh, you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Please keep in mind that the vegetables may release some moisture over time, so give the salad a quick toss before serving again.

Recipe tips & tricks

To prevent the salad from becoming watery, you can salt the cucumbers and radishes before assembling the salad. Simply sprinkle them with salt and let them sit for 5 minutes.
For an extra burst of flavor, try adding fresh herbs such as dill or parsley to the salad.
If you prefer a vegan option, you can substitute the Greek yogurt with a dairy-free alternative such as coconut or almond yogurt.

Enjoy this creamy and delicious Mediterranean Cucumber Radish Salad!
