Refreshing and inexpensive. I forgot to take a picture until we had already eaten two servings 😋 We enjoyed this with baked beans and a stuffed roasted poblano.

- 1
To make the dressing, begin by squeezing about two tablespoons of chopped onion with a lemon juicer, reserving about 1 tablespoon of liquid in a bowl.
- 2
Whisk in any type of vinegar, salt and any type of sweetener. I used local honey. I also think brown sugar would work really well.
- 3
Add oil(equal to the amount of vinegar used) in a slow steady stream, whisking to emulsify. Or you can use a blender or food processor.
- 4
Set dressing aside. Wash the cucumber, peel and cut in half. If you have guinea pigs they will love the peels : ) I sliced those halves in half to create semi-circles. Slice thinly.
- 5
Add a tablespoon of chopped onion to the sliced cucumber.
- 6
Whisk vinaigrette again and pour over cucumbers and onions. Cover and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.

Sweet Cucumber Salad Sweet Cucumber Salad
Our local Thai place has a really nice cucumber salad that is very sweet. This is owr version of a cucumber salad that is not as sweet, with a pop of flavor from the pepper. We enjoy this during warmer months with various chicken or pork dishes. And now to find a decent peanut sauce recipe.... 🤔

I wanted to use up some cans.There's canned saury, sardines, mackerel, etc., so use whatever's available.You can season it with soy sauce or miso if you like.It's lightly flavored and delicious.Canned food is heavily flavored, so you don't need seasonings.Kids love it if you add a bit of mayonnaise.

I love cucumber salad but the full fat mayo version has too many calories. So I've created one that uses lighter ingredients but the taste isn't compromised. This is my "go to" side dish for so many meals now made with less guilt!

Simple Tomato & Sweet Onion Salad Simple Tomato & Sweet Onion Salad
Here in Southern California, we're back to al fresco dining weather, and we like to enjoy it as much a possible.One of our favorite al fresco meals is a wine, cheese, and salumi lunch, and this simple tomato salad made specifically with red wine vinegar is one of my favorite accompaniments. You could totally use another kind of vinegar if you like, but there's just something about the flavor of red wine vinegar that I love in this salad. :)If you can get them, sweet onions like Vidalias or Mayan Sweets are ideal.

Orange and Sweet Onion Salad Orange and Sweet Onion Salad
I absolutely love the combination of these flavors. I wanted everyone to try it at least once so I uploaded the recipe here!The oranges I used this time were small, so I used one per person, cut it into half and then sliced them into about 7-8 mm. If you have large oranges, cut them into quarters first.If you don't have sweet onions, use regular onions, soaked in salted water or massaged with a little salt to get rid of the harshness. For 2 servings. Recipe by rie-tin -

Easy Refreshing Sweet Onion and Tomato Salad Easy Refreshing Sweet Onion and Tomato Salad
This is a copycat recipe of the tomato salad that a Genghis Khan (BBQ sliced lamb) restaurant serves. My husband, who does not like fresh tomatoes, loved it. And, he said it was better than the one at the restaurant.If you use sweet onions, they should not be too sharp tasting, but if you'd rather not have any sharpness, soak them in water to mellow the flavor. If you have enough time, chill the tomatoes on a plate in the refrigerator until icy cold, then enjoy. Recipe by Momonoyasashiikaori -

My mother made this for me a lot. My husband loves it too.It's best made in advance (e.g.: made at lunchtime for dinner), so that you can let it rest in the refrigerator for a sufficient amount of time to let it get really cold and have the flavors settle in. Recipe by Inaemon -
