Wheat Free Avocado Cucumber Salad
This bright, refreshing salad is everything you want on a warm day — creamy avocado, cool crisp cucumber, and a golden turmeric-ginger dressing that somehow manages to feel both light and deeply satisfying. The dressing comes together with just a whisk and a handful of pantry staples, so there's no fuss and no cooking required. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of wheat, which means no label-scanning, no substitutions, and no compromises on flavor. The apple cider vinegar adds a gentle tang that balances the richness of the avocado beautifully, while the scallions and cilantro keep things lively and fresh. A finishing scatter of torn mint takes it somewhere almost restaurant-worthy. Fold everything together gently so the avocado holds its shape, and get it to the table quickly — this one is best eaten the moment it's dressed.
