cucumber etc salad!
By diana on Jul 19, 2013 | In capricious bloviations
I got this idea from Danika Hamer. So...props. :)
This recipe is delicious immediately and if you leave it overnight in the 'fridge, it'll make your knees weak--and I'm not even much of a cucumber fan.
Here's the recipe we're using right now (because recipes evolve, dontchaknow):
main ingredients
3 medium cucumbers, peeled and diced
2 yellow bell peppers, seeded and diced
1 bag (about a pound, I guess) of vine-ripened tomatoes, diced
1 medium red onion, quartered then sliced very thinly
sauce, to taste
Lemon juice
Red wine vinegar
Olive oil
salt
pepper
sugar
(I could give you proportions, but I really don't know myself. Just make sure you're happy with the sauce before you combine it with the main ingredients.)
For best results, leave in refrigerator overnight.
Oh man. Yes.
(Short because I'm busy.)

Diana,
I could go for that. Thanks! I’m doing this diet called “Vegan Before 6″ where basically you eat vegan before 6:00 PM. It was invented by a food writer and restaurant critic for the NY Times. He needed to lose weight but didn’t want to give up his day job as a foodie. So far I’ve lost 13 pounds in about 8 weeks, and it’s been easy to stick to. Salads like this are why.
