- In a small bowl, whisk together the juice of 2 fresh limes, 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, and 1 tablespoon of honey or agave nectar. Add a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Pour the prepared dressing over the pineapple and cucumber mixture in the large bowl. Gently toss the salad with a spatula or large spoon until every piece is evenly coated with dressing.

Notes
For optimal flavor, use a ripe pineapple and prepare ingredients just before serving to maintain cucumber freshness.
