a good recipe for a salad without greens
TOMATO AND CUCUMBER SALAD - from my grandmother
Tomatoes, washed and sliced
Cucumbers, peeled, scored with fork tines, and sliced
Green Onions, sliced
Fresh Parsley, chopped
Green Peppers, sliced or diced (optional)
Fresh Chives, chopped (optional)
Fresh Basil Leaves, chopped (optional)
Put all fresh veggies and herbs in a salad/serving bowl. Make sugar-vinegar-water solution, but make sure it is chilled. Pour over veggies at least 1/2 hour before serving and refrigerate.
Short-cut on making sugar-vinegar water:
Put 1/2 cup sugar and 1 cup cider vinegar in 2 cup Pyrex measuring pitcher and heat on High in microwave until sugar is dissolved. Add enough ice cubes to add about one cup additional liquid. When these melt, the solution will be ready to be put on the veggies.
Alternate: Use fresh zucchini instead of cucumber.
For the sour cream sauce for cucs, just add a little vinegar (cider
or red wine) and a little olive oil (optional) and a little sugar
plus fresh chopped chives/parsley if you have it. The stir this into
the sliced cucs. Add fresh onion also if you like it (we do!).
