INSTRUCTIONS:
1 – Prep and Mix:
Start by washing and thinly slicing the cucumber. You can use a mandoline slicer for uniform slices or simply practice your knife skills.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced cucumber, shredded cabbage, thinly sliced red onion, and chopped parsley or cilantro. Toss gently to mix and mingle the flavors.
2 – Dress to Impress:
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper to create the dressing. Adjust the seasoning to your taste preferences.
Pour the dressing over the cucumber and cabbage mixture, ensuring that every vegetable is coated with the delicious flavors of the dressing. Toss gently to evenly distribute the dressing.
3 – Chill and Let Flavors Marinate:
Cover the salad bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and develop. This step is essential for achieving maximum deliciousness!

Once chilled and infused with flavor, remove the salad from the refrigerator and give it a final toss.
