Ingredients

  • 8 oz Halloumi cheese
  • 1 pint Cherry tomatoes
  • 1 medium Cucumber
  • 0.25 small Red onion
  • 0.25 cup Fresh mint
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1Cut the 8 oz Halloumi cheese into 1-inch cubes.
  2. 2Prepare the vegetables: Cut the 1 pint cherry tomatoes in half. Cut the 1 medium cucumber into bite-sized pieces. Cut the 0.25 small red onion into bite-sized pieces.
  3. 3Thread the 8 oz halloumi cubes, cherry tomatoes, cucumber pieces, and red onion pieces onto skewers. Alternate the ingredients for an even distribution.
  4. 4In a small bowl, combine the 0.25 cup fresh mint (chopped), 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 3 tablespoons olive oil, 0.25 teaspoon salt, and 0.25 teaspoon black pepper. Whisk these ingredients together until they are well combined to create the mint-lemon dressing.
