Cucumber Salad

This is a simple, frugal recipe that always pleases my family. I tend to make this when I have no energy or inspiration for anything else. It is so quick to make and I can throw it together in just a couple of minutes. Then, I refrigerate it while the rest of our meal is cooking. In the summer, when tomatoes are fresh, I like to cut them in medium sized chunks and add them to this Cucumber Salad.

Cucumber Salad

2 large cucumbers

¼ cup white wine vinegar

2 Tbsp. olive oil

2 Tbsp. raw sugar

Salt to Taste

Peel cucumbers. Cut in half length wise and then cut each half length wise again. Thinly slice each length of cucumber. Put into a large bowl.  For the dressing, combine the white wine vinegar, olive oil, and raw sugar in a small bowl. Whisk together and pour over the cucumbers, stirring to coat. Add salt to taste. Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.
