Instructions

Wash the cucumber under cold water and slice it into thin rounds (about 1/8-inch thick). Place in a large mixing bowl.
Rinse the strawberries and hull them. Slice into thin pieces (about 1/4-inch thick) and add to the bowl with cucumbers.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cucumber and strawberry mixture. Toss gently until everything is coated.
Rinse and chiffonade the mint leaves before adding them to the salad. Toss again to distribute evenly.
Let sit for 5–10 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
