I grow up on this salad in portugal. It's lovely and light. It compliments barbecued meat really well

Tastes like summer

Great for a summer barbecue to add a fresh Cucumber salad!

Cucumber salad

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!

Perfect match for my Pan Seared Salmon. Got the recipe from one of the food bloggers whom I admire a lot. If you like my recipes, please follow my Instagram @jenscookingdiary for the Indonesian recipes or @jenscookdineandtravel for the English recipes 🙏🏻😊😘

#saladHealthy salad recipe

It's such a perfectly gorgeous Spring day out there that sharing something light, healthful and refreshing seems fitting.

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! 👏🤤

Easy, quick, and delicious!
