Strawberry, Cucumber & Honeydew Salad image

Strawberries and cucumbers together-I just love this combination! We used to eat a lot of cucumbers growing up in upstate New York. We'd get them, along with strawberries and melons, from fruit and veggie stands to make this sweet and tangy salad. -Melissa Mccabe, Long Beach, California
