- 1/4 cup vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (such as dill or parsley) for garnish
Instructions
- Combine the sliced cucumbers, chopped tomatoes, and thinly sliced onion in a large mixing bowl.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, sugar, salt, and black pepper until well blended.

Notes
- Use the freshest ingredients possible for maximum flavor.
- Allow the salad to marinate longer for a more intense taste and better-melded flavors.
- Avoid over-marinating to prevent the vegetables from becoming too soft.
- Balance the dressing’s acidity and sweetness to avoid overpowering the natural flavors of the veggies.
- Add feta cheese or olives for an additional twist.
