Chunky Bacon and Cucumber Salad
cookpad.japan @cookpad_jp
This is a recipe that uses up a lot of cucumbers. I wanted to make a western style salad that went well with pasta, so I combined some ingredients I usually have on hand.
The sautéed bacon and olive oil becomes the dressing. It goes best with the cucumber if you think it's a bit too salty. The cucumber loses its raw flavor, and it becomes a very tasty salad. Great as a drinking appetizer! For 2 servings. Recipe by Gissele

I suppose if you can't find roasted garlic and bacon dressing any kind of ranch would do.the only reason I use roasted garlic and bacon dressing was because I didn't have any mayo. And I think I like it better with the dressing

Midsummer Cucumber Salad
I decided not to garden this year. Thankfully, I have a generous neighbor who provides me with the bounty from his. He provides the cucumbers, I provide the salad. Sounds like a good tradeoff to me.Cucumber salad is cold, refreshing, and perfect as a side to any BBQ dish, but perfectly good on its own. A glass of rose doesn't hurt.

The only thing i do differently on the recipe is i use one large seedless cucumber, around 12" and omit the tomatoes. Very tasty side dish, enjoy!

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.... 🤔
