Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 2 medium cucumbers (peeled, sliced 1/2-in thick & each slice halved diagonally)
  • 1 medium red onion (rough diced)
  • 2 large tomatoes (seeds removed & pulp diced)
  • 1/2 green pepper (thin-sliced & cut in 1 inch segments)
  • 2/3 cup black olives (halved, optional)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1 teaspoon seasoning salt (more to taste as desired)
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Prep all veggie ingredients & olives (if using) as specified in the ingredient list & add to a large bowl as you go.

  • Step 2: Add last 6 ingredients to bowl, mix well & refrigerate at least 2 hrs (stirring at least once to redistribute the ingredients).

  • NOTE #1: The cucumber cut is esp important & key to success. If thin-sliced, most cucumbers wilt, their crunch does not survive & their excess moistur creates a watery mess

  • NOTE #2: When all ingredients have been combined, the mixture will appear dry & lack the creamy texture you expected. Not to worry as that will change quickly

  • NOTE #3: The amount of salt used has been left small to allow for personal preferences, so I suggest you taste the salad for this & adjust the salt content B4 serving as desired
