This marinated cucumber, onion, and tomato salad is a staple in my kitchen, especially during the warm months when I crave something crisp, juicy, and fresh. Growing up in the Midwest, this salad was a frequent guest at our family barbecues and potlucks. It’s a simple dish that highlights the natural flavors of the vegetables, enhanced by a tangy marinade. Perfect for anyone looking to add a refreshing side to their meal without spending too much time in the kitchen.
This salad pairs beautifully with grilled chicken or fish, making it a perfect side for a summer cookout. It also complements heavier dishes like lasagna or casseroles, providing a refreshing contrast. If you’re packing lunch for work, this salad is a great addition to a sandwich or wrap, adding a burst of flavor and crunch.
