Cucumber Salad

I am so happy that fresh cucumbers are here from the garden!!!!  This salad is one of my all-time favorite recipes.  Really & truly, I think I could eat it everyday!!  The pretty, pink depression glass serving bowl is from my 93-year-old Mother-in-law.  Isn't it so nice to have special things from someone that we can continue to enjoy?  If you LOVE cucumbers, I hope you try this recipe:


2 cucumbers, cubed
1 tomato, seeded & chopped (if I have cherry tomatoes, I prefer them)
1 green pepper, chopped
1 red onion, chopped
1/3 c. oil
3 T. vinegar
3 T. sugar (I use 3 packets of Splenda)
salt & pepper

Put everything together in a bowl & stir.  Cover & chill until serving.  Most of the time, I just throw it together & we eat it right then.

Serve up a big helping & enjoy!!!!
