Ingredients & Substitutions
Here is everything you need to make the best-tasting Feta Strawberry Cucumber Salad recipe:
Strawberries: Fresh, ripe strawberries work best.
Crisp Cucumbers: You can use a variety of cucumbers including English cucumbers, mini cucumbers
Feta Cheese: Replace the feta cheese with goat cheese for a similar creamy texture and tangy flavor, or use a dairy-free alternative like almond or cashew cheese.
Avocado: If you don’t have avocado, you can substitute it with diced mango for a sweet and tropical twist, or omit it altogether if you prefer.
Sliced Almonds: For a different nutty flavor and texture, substitute the sliced almonds with chopped pecans, walnuts, or sunflower seeds.
Mint Leaves: For a different herbaceous flavor, use basil leaves instead of mint, or omit the mint altogether if you don’t have any on hand.
Avocado Oil: Substitute avocado oil with extra-virgin olive oil or grapeseed oil for a different flavor profile.
White Balsamic Vinegar: If you don’t have white balsamic vinegar, you can use regular balsamic vinegar for a deeper, richer flavor, or apple cider vinegar or for a slightly tangy taste.
Honey: For a vegan alternative, replace honey with maple syrup or agave nectar, or omit it altogether if you prefer a less sweet dressing.
Sea Salt: You can use any variety of salt you have on hand.

How to Make My Strawberry Cucumber Avocado Salad Recipe
Here are easy, detailed, step-by-step instructions for the best way to make this delicious healthier version of the viral recipe. The instructions are also repeated in the recipe card at the bottom of this blog post.
Step 1: Prepare the Salad
In a large bowl, combine the chopped strawberries, sliced cucumber, crumbled feta cheese, diced avocado, toasted almonds and chopped mint leaves.

Step 2: Make the Dressing
In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the avocado oil, white balsamic vinegar, lime juice, and honey. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 3: Assemble and Serve
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat. Garnish with additional fresh mint leaves (optional).

Recipe Notes
Avocados: To prevent the avocado from browning, you can toss it with a bit of lemon juice before adding it to the salad. This salad is best served fresh, but you can store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to a day. The avocado may brown slightly, but the salad will still be delicious.
Toasting Almonds: To toast the sliced almonds, toss them in a teaspoon of melted butter and sprinkle with a dash of salt. Then spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant. Keep an eye on them as they can burn quickly.
Cucumber Salad Serving Suggestions
- Serve over a bed of baby spinach and fresh fruit slices for the best results
- Add different flavors with sesame seeds and poppy seeds
- Drizzle with apple cider vinaigrette
