One of my favorite salads to enjoy during the summer months is Macaroni Salad, I love that stuff! Our Quick & Easy No Cook Potato Salad would come in a close second. My family gets pretty tired of it by the end of summer, ha ha.  I am ready to introduce a few new salads to the family this summer. This salad is perfect.

Normally I will just have honeydew for a snack or load it in to a fruit salad. Mixing it with the cucumber for this salad worked out great. The addition of the dill and honey for a bit of sweetness really kicked this mix up a notch. Perfect to enjoy with our summer bbqs this year.

I served the salad at Cierra’s birthday party this past weekend and the bowl was gone quite quickly. I was surprised as this salad is quite simple and nothing too fancy, ha ha. I had a dish of feta cheese on the side for those who would like that addition (my family refuses to eat feta so I didn’t want to ruin this salad for them). It was a hit!
