Ingredients

  • 3 medium cucumbers, peeled if the skin is thick and sliced into rounds
  • 4 medium peaches, cut into chunks (ours were small so I used more)
  • 1 small red onion, very thinly sliced
  • 2 T extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 c cider vinegar
  • 1 T water
  • 1 T agave syrup, or to taste
  • 1 T finely chopped sweet basil
  • 1 T finely chopped fresh mint
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Place the onion slices in a bowl with cold water to calm the onion fumes down. Set aside for 10 minutes while you prep the other veggies.
  2. Whisk together the water, oil, vinegar, agave and salt. Add the chopped herbs and whisk. Taste for more agave, salt or even vinegar.
  3. Place the cucumbers and peaches together in a large bowl. Drain the onion slices and add them. Then toss everything with the dressing.
