Cucumber Onion Salad is a superb, refreshing summertime salad. A significant profit is how straightforward it’s to make! It’s only 7 elements and a couple of of them are water and salt!

The cucumbers:

The skinny, seedless cucumbers are the nicest ones to make use of if in case you have them. In case you have ones with large seeds, you could need to reduce these out. Both method, thinly sliced cucumbers are the most effective for this recipe, because the liquid can soak into them the most effective.  

We choose our cucumbers principally peeled. I normally “stripe” them, which means principally peel them or go away zebra stripes. That makes them fairly and there isn’t a lot peel for many who aren’t as loopy about it.

The onions:

We choose Vidalia onions, as they’re milder and don’t chew as a lot as some. Definitely use any onion that you just choose.

I did hold the onion to a minimal within the recipe since they’re a better carb vegetable. Sliced thinly, they nonetheless are very pleasantly all through the salad.

In the event you can afford the carbs and love them, then be happy so as to add extra if you want.

The sweetener:

I exploit Swerve within the recipe however once more, use what sweetener you want. You may also modify it to how candy you want. You will want some sweetener to chop the acidity of the vinegar. I attempted to actually scale back the sweetener as soon as and that was a mistake. Shew, was it bitter!

If you’re not low carb or Keto; use common sugar.

If you’re Paleo; use coconut sugar, honey or maple syrup.

You’ll want to heat the water and vinegar combination earlier than including the sweetener so it’ll dissolve. You don’t need gritty sweetener in your salad.
