I know this was not on the weekly menu, but my garden is overflowing with cucumbers!! I had to make a quick side dish for lunch one day and decided on this. This simple salad, using only 4 ingredients, was something I grew up with. If I hadn't, I might be unsure about the combination of ingredients, but trust me, it's great! It is crisp and clean and compliments most meals. If you want a super easy use for your cucumbers, give this a try.
Ingredients
1 large cucumber, peeled, quartered, and sliced
3 Tbsp sugar
5 Tbsp white vinegar
toasted sesame seeds, to taste
Directions
- Combine all the ingredients into a medium sized bowl. Mix well.
- It is best if you allow it to sit in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to combine.
Looks like a tastety salad!! Thanks for hosting Foodie Friends Friday! I'm now a new follower, it would be great if you'd follow me back at http://lifeofblocks.blogspot.com/
