Healthy Recipes Healthy Salad Recipes Healthy Vegetable Salad Recipes Healthy Cucumber Salad Recipes Cucumber & Celery Salad 3.7 (3) 3 Reviews This cucumber and celery salad is crunchy and fresh and strikes the perfect balance between salty and sweet. Gochugaru, a coarse Korean chili powder, brings mild heat to the dish. Gently smashing the cucumbers helps to evenly distribute the flavor. This is the perfect salad to eat with rice and tofu or grilled fish or shrimp.
