• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1/2 cup lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses
• 1 teaspoon sumac
• 1/2 teaspoon dried mint
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

   For the salad, finely chop the cucumbers, tomato, bell pepper, onion and parsley.

   Place the chopped vegetables in a bowl and drizzle over roughly 1/4 cup of the salad dressing.
