AMAZING CUCUMBER BASIL SALAD
I created this salad because I had lots of fresh veggies and herbs from my garden that needed using up. It is so good, and because it makes its own dressing, it's very healthy as well. The flavor is best when left in the fridge overnight.

SUMMER FRUIT SALAD WITH HONEY, LIME & BASIL DRESSING
I wanted to make a fruit salad, but needed to use the fruits currently in season (and on sale). Strawberries are the only ingredient that *just* went out of season. Try to serve this the same day it's made, as the cherries tend to turn everything red after a while.
