When the weather gets hot all my side dishes get cold! This recipe is new to me, but I think I could eat it all summer without complaint. It also fits beautifully into the budget when made from cukes fresh from the garden. Besides, a girl can only eat so many potatoes.
1/2 c. white vinegar
1/4 c. water
3/4 c. white sugar
1 TBSP celery seed
2 large cucumbers thinly sliced
1 small onion finely chopped
Combine first four ingredients and toss with cucumber and onion. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. You'll want to serve with a slotted spoon. If you have dressing left over just add some more cucumber slices.

This looks very tasty - definitely a good one for summer! I didn't include cucumbers in my garden this year and I'm beginning to wish I had!!
ReplyDeleteI love cucumbers anyway I can get them, but my hubby likes them "doctored up". This sounds delicious for both of us!
ReplyDeleteYummy! I love cukes about any way you can make them. This sounds delish!
