A cucumber salad. Makes a delicious summer salad or side dish for any entree. If you freeze and save some for winter meal treats, you'll really appreciate the wonderful fresh taste with a good hot meal. Enjoy them year round.

Ingredients:

  • 7 cups thinly sliced cucumbers
  • 3 medium onions, sliced thin
  • 1 green pepper, chopped or sliced
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 cup vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp. celery seed
  • 1 Tbsp. salt

Directions:

Prepare cucumbers by peeling and slicing them very thin. (You can just peel part of the cucumbers making them look striped, and it's very attractive.) Slice onions and pepper. Add them to the cucumbers and sprinkle on the Tbsp. of salt, stir and set aside.

Bring vinegar, sugar, and celery seed to a boil on medium heat, stirring all the while to dissolve sugar. Cool, then pour over vegetables. Cover and refrigerate for 24 hours.

Serve as an individual salad on a bed or lettuce or ladle into canning jars and freeze until you're ready to eat them. Just defrost and serve for a fresh taste of summer.

Servings: 8-10
Prep Time: 45 Minutes
Cooking Time: 0 Hours

This is an easy recipe and I have made it even easier throughout the years. This came from my mother who never measured anything. She just used her hand to measure and then made it to taste.

Feel free to switch very thinly sliced green onions for the red onions in this recipe. You can also use the dry ranch dressing mix but, since it's potent you might want to add one half teaspoon at a time to the sour cream and taste test.

Sprinkle cucumbers with salt in a bowl and toss. Add sugar, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, and toss. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, toss, marinate for 20 minutes and serve.

We eat this yogurt salad on the side of most of our Mediterranean and Middle Eastern dishes, especially ones that include meat or rice. It's really refreshing and is great as a palate cleanser. It's really easy to throw together and has fantastic textures.

This recipe uses onions and cucumbers with apple cider vinegar. It has a wonderful, fresh taste that I like! The kids don't really like it though.

This is easy to make. My family likes it as movie snack, and it has two vegetables.

This salad is really different. Interesting mix of the fruity flavored gelatin along with the vegetables.

Salad lovers, you will love this one, too. Put ham and cucumbers in a bowl. Prepare dressing by stirring together all ingredients.

A flexible recipe that you can make as much or as little as you want. Some people add sliced raw onions, but I do not like raw onions. This is very refreshing on a hot summer day. It keeps well and tastes better as the flavors mingle. Cucumbers are very plentiful and inexpensive this time of year. If you grown them yourself, like I do, this dish costs pennies.
