Comes in handy when you have kids that always want food. This recipe is fast and easy.

This refreshing cucumber salad is the perfect way to stay cool and enjoy a crunchy and tasty snack. It's grain free and it's made under under 9 minutes 😋 Not only is it a great appetizer and side dish, you can also adjust the rations to bring out the flavors that you like best !

This salad is very simple to prepare, but it has a rich flavor, is very refreshing, and is the perfect complement to breaded, grilled, or fried beef, chicken, or pork.

My mother used to make a similar recipe when I was younger. I was never able to get the recipe from her so this is the best recreation of it.

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.... 🤔

This is a simple recipe from my childhood. My stepfather always made this growing up. We ate this as a side dish, as an appetizer, at cookouts,...even as a topper for other foods! He usually only did "Cucumbers & Tomatoes in Italian Dressing" but when I started making it myself in my late 20s I started adding onion because I'm obsessed with them! 😆👌 Then, in my early 30s a good friend made this at her home with the addition of green peppers as she had grown a lot of them that year. So now, my personal recipe has adapted to the inclusion of all of these wonderful foods! I also, play around occasionally with the dressing. 😎👍 This particular time I used a raspberry vinaigrette in place of Italian Dressing & I have also used regular vinaigrettes as well. This is always a nice addition to dinner or the cookout. And even as a midday snack! 👏🤤

Anytime I BBQ in the summer I throw this quick and easy salad together. It's simple and delicious. Sometimes, I'll add greens like pea shoots or other micro greens with it.

My mother in law cucumber salad

I don't like too tangy of cucumber salad. This salad is just right but I am sure that if it is too tangy you could add more water and if it is not tangy enough just add more vinegar.

A light "chunky" side dish to compliment most grilled BBQ meals or serve with Italian dishes. The fresh basil gives it a nice flavor. Add a “hint of mint” (instead of basil) and black olives for a slight, cool refreshing taste, especially with Mediterranean dishes of lamb, grilled chorizo and/or seafood.

Refreshing

The struggle to survive is real: This recipe is over a simple craving for a salad while broke and using what I have. This is such a versatile recipe you will find it easily adapted to how many servings you need, plus enjoying the uplifting notes of lime.
