View Full Version : Simple salad with only 3 ingredients
GoldenTV 12-12-2024, 07:47 PM This salad have a Mediterranean back ground and due to its very "crisp" taste it is eaten as a contrast to heavy hearty meals such as made with rice, pasta, pizza, bread. I make it all the time and it will keep in refrigerator for couple of days.
It only have three ingredients: 2 Cucumber, 2 Tomato and 1/2 Onion. Chop up the vegetables in small sizes. Add two ounces of Cider vinegar (or juice of two limes), two teaspoon of olive oil and a dash of salt, black pepper and mix well. Optional, but one can also add chopped fresh Parsley or Cilantro for added kick.
Let it chill before serving :)

If I had 4 to use, I'd love large bacon bits.

Its probably me, but never develop a taste for Avocados. Its just too bland for my taste. Japanese use it in their Sushi and that is probably why I don't care for Sushi either :)

Wouldn't that be Waldorf salads without the Walnuts. Love that salad especially when made with tart Granny Smith apples.
