Pineapple Salad/Pineapple Cucumber Salad – a 10 min prep

Summer is the ideal season for a trip to the beach! Summer is one of my favorite seasons! Regardless of how much fun we have in the sun, we must keep our bodies hydrated.

And, for a picnic or other special event, this fresh Pineapple Cucumber Salad dish is unbeatable. Why? Because it travels well and maintains its freshness. Nothing beats a pineapple salad as dessert for a pleasant meal.

Drinking refreshing drinks and eating watery fruits like watermelon, citrus fruits, cucumber, pineapple, and others is one approach for weight loss and staying healthy throughout this season.

Pineapple Salad Dressing (Old Fashioned)

If you think this Thai salad style is dull because of its small ingredient list, think again. This salad dressing will delight your taste buds.

It’s composed of simple ingredients, but when mixed, they create a powerful summer flavor!

This simple dressing is packed with flavor and made using easy-to-find ingredients including Lime juice, mayonnaise, oil, honey, red pepper flakes, white vinegar, and salt & pepper

You get to savor all of these flavors in one serving: tangy, vibrant, and sweet, with a hint of fire. Oh, my goodness!

What Else Can You Add to your Pineapple Salad?

Depending on your preferences, you can always alter your salad with pineapple salsa by adding additional fruits or fresh veggies.

To be honest, I have a couple of variations for this salad. Here are a few of my favorite add-ons.

• To mix the pineapple flavor, add a slice of avocado.
• For a delicious taste, add some green leafy lettuce and cranberries.
• Pineapple goes great with shrimp.
• You can use any leftover bread.
• Do you enjoy cheese? Add some parmesan or mild cheddar cheese, chopped.
