From my Kitchen with Love: Cucumber Salad

Spring has SPRUNG and so have spring flavors! 

I have a slight obsession with cucumbers. 

One of my favorite spring/summer treats is cucumber salad.

I wanted to make some for a side dish.

So I started experimenting.

It takes some time in the fridge to make but it is WAY worth it. 

Crisp Cucumber Salad 

1 large cucumber sliced 

1/2 red onion sliced

3 TBS salt

1/2 c of sugar 

1/2 c of white vinegar 

2 TBS Cilantro chopped 

1/2 tbs cracked black pepper

In a bowl coat sliced cucumbers and onions in salt.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. 

After 2 hours rinse off the salt and return veggies to the bowl. 

In a separate bowl combine sugar and vinegar.

Pour vinegar/sugar mixture over the veggies. Toss in cilantro and pepper. 

Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
