This cucumber salad is lower in fat than the one that I grew up with, but it's packed with flavor. Very good during the summer on a hot day on the side of pretty much anything you could possibly want to eat. A cook out must. Ingredients:
2 large cucumbers, peeled, seeded and diced |
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped |
1 medium red onion, diced |
1/4 cup garlic, minced |
2 teaspoons olive oil |
3 tablespoons vinegar |
3 teaspoons sugar |
2 -3 tablespoons sweet chili sauce (or to taste) |
1/2 cup peanuts, chopped (optional) |
Directions:
1. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the garlic over medium heat until crispy, set aside to cool.
2. Mix the vinegar and sugar together.
3. In a bowl, toss together the chopped onion, bell pepper, and cucumbers.
4. Pour the vinegar/sugar mixture and the chili sauce over the salad and toss.
5. Add the cooled garlic and toss.
6. Upon serving, sprinkle the chopped peanuts over the salad
7. Enjoy!
