    Orange Cucumber Salad


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 Cucumber
    1 Navel Orange
    2 tb Low-Fat Plain Yogurt
    2 ts Honey
    2 ts Orange Juice
    1 ts Lemon Juice
    1 tb Thinly Sliced Mint Leaves
    4 Lettuce Leaves

    Recipe



    Peel the cucumber. Cut in half lengthwise, then thinly slice on the
    diagonal.

    Use a vegetable peeler to remove a few thin strips of rind from the
    orange. Remove only the colored part, not the underlying bitter white
    pith. Very thinly slice the rind into shreds. Measure out 2 teaspoons.

    Peel the orange, divide the flesh into sections, remove the membranes, and
    dice into sections.

    In a medium bowl whisk together the yogurt, honey, orange juice, and lemon
    juice. Mix in the cucumbers, oranges, mint leaves, and orange rind. Chill
    for 20 minutes.

    To serve, place a lettuce leaf on each of 4 salad plates. Divide salad
    among leaves.
