A light and refreshing cucumber and sweet pepper salad, perfect as a side dish or a healthy snack. This salad combines crisp cucumbers with colorful bell peppers and a tangy, slightly sweet dressing.

Ingredients

  • 2 large cucumbers, thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup white vinegar
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the sliced cucumbers, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and red onion.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine the vinegar, sugar, water, salt, and black pepper. Heat over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved.
  3. Remove the dressing from heat and allow it to cool slightly.
  4. Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss to coat evenly.
  5. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

  • Use a mandoline slicer for evenly thin vegetable slices.
  • You can add fresh herbs like dill or parsley for extra flavor.
