You have to admit that the creations that come out of the culinary institute of TikTok just know how to hit your taste buds the right way. And the latest delicacy to come out of the digital kitchen is a crunchy, savory salad that only takes five ingredients to achieve.

Cucumber Sweet Pepper Salad Recipe

To create the viral cucumber sweet pepper salad, here's what you need:

To recreate the salad on your own, start by chopping baby cucumbers into small pieces, along with sweet peppers diced into thin rounds. Now, itā€™s time to add some tanginess. Take your medley of veggies and mix in a splash of Makoto Ginger Dressing (to taste), add a healthy spoonful of Fly by Jin Sichuan Chili Crisp sauce, and complete with sprinkles of Trader Joeā€™s Everything But The Bagel Sesame Seasoning Blend. Toss and enjoy!

The combination is sure to leave your taste buds dancing in delight, or as Rachael puts it, ā€œI will literally drink the juice.ā€

Who knew something so simple and veggie-forward could deliver a punch thatā€™d have you wanting more? You get the sweet, savory, crunchy, and crispness all in one. And did we mention itā€™s healthy?

Cucumbers are as refreshing as they are nutritious, offering a number of health benefits. These veggies are a good source of vitamin C, vitamin K, and potassium, as well as other nutrients like magnesium and fiber. Theyā€™re also anti-inflammatory and contain antioxidants that help reduce inflammation in the body.

With sweet peppers, you get a low-calorie vegetable that makes a great choice for weight management. They are also high in fiber, which can help to keep you feeling full and satisfied.

Not to mention, the salad stands out for its versatility. Put it over rice, eat it alone, or pair it with salmon for the perfect, fulfilling dinnertime staple. As the warmer months roll in, thereā€™s no better time than to find a snack that cools you down and satisfies your cravings.

Consider yourself influenced.
