Cucumber Salad Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 large cucumbers, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped (optional)
  • 1/4 cup white vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (or vegetable oil)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar (adjust to taste)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the sliced cucumbers and red onion.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, sugar, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until the sugar dissolves.
  3. Pour the dressing over the cucumbers and onions. Add the fresh dill, if using.
  4. Toss everything together until well coated.
  5. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  6. Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish.

If you’d like, I can adjust it for a creamy version or an Asian-style twist — just say the word!
