Cucumber and Red Onion Salad

  • Hey Ya’ll! I hope you loved my Chocolate Dipped Strawberry video, because here’s another one! This one is of me making one of all time favorite snacks – cucumber and red onion salad. I eat during the day while I’m doing my homework, I eat it as a side dish, and even bring it to pot lucks, my family loves it. Here’s a tip- if you don’t have any red wine vinegar , try using the juice of a good ripe lemon. It taste awesome!

    Here’s the Video

    And Heeeeeeeeeres the delicious recipe:

    2 large cucumbers

    1/2 of red onione

    1/4 cup of red wine vinegar

    1/4 cup of olive oil

    salt and pepper to taste

    1/4- 1/2 teaspoon of oregano (depending on how much you like)

    First, peel and thinly slice both cucumbers, and red onion, toss together in a medium bowl, set aside.

    Next, whisk together red wine vinegar,olive oil, salt and pepper to taste, and oregano. Pour vinaigrette over cucumber and red onion, and toss together , refrigerate or serve immediately over a bed of lettuce, I like using butter leaf or romaine. Enjoy!
