I've made this before, since I like recipes that use the fresh herbs I grow. And I love tahini.

Cucumber Salad with Tahini Dressing
Ingredients

- zest of 1 lemon
- ⅓ cup chopped red onion

- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- salt to taste
- pepper to taste
- Peel and cut cucumbers into bite-size pieces.
- In a large bowl, combine tahini, lemon juice and water. Add extra water a little at a time until you reach desired consistency of dressing.
- Stir in garlic, lemon zest and onion. Add cucumbers and toss to combine.
- Add mint, basil and parsley and stir gently. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve chilled.
