Cucumber Salad


I haven't posted a recipe forever. I need there to be three of me. I'm going to get back to posting recipes, even if I forget to take a picture! Today I made this salad. I was delicious if you like a little bit of a sweet vinegar taste. I only used 1/4 cup of sugar and it was still delicious!




3 Large Cucumbers peeled and sliced.
1 Cup Large Cherrie Tomatoes cut in half.
1 Cup White Vinegar.
3/4 Cup Water.
1/2 Cup Sugar.
1 Tsp Agave Syrup.
1 Tsp Salt
Dash Course Ground Pepper.
Dash Dried Basil
Dash Parsley
Dash Cayenne Pepper

I like a lot of the seasonings, so I added more than a dash. I also like colored peppers so I chopped some of those up into large strips and then cut the strips in to fairly large chunks big enough to stab a fork in and added those. I really like this salad. Next time I'm going to try it with some onion. And I suppose you could use any kind of tomato in it. I've seen Roma's quartered and that's really yummy too.
