This is a recipe my Grammy made since before I was born and has been a hit in my family just as long. It's super easy, and fresh garden veggies make it even tastier!

Ingredients

  • 2 cucumbers, sliced

  • 2 tomatoes, sliced

  • ¼ onion, chopped

  • 1 cup creamy salad dressing (such as Miracle Whip®), or more to taste

  • 2 tablespoons white sugar, or to taste

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Combine cucumbers, tomatoes, onion, creamy salad dressing, sugar, salt, and black pepper in a salad bowl. If salad seems too sweet, add more salad dressing; if too tart, add more sugar. Chill before serving.

Cook's Note:

My Grammy never used a recipe and didn't own measuring cups or spoons, so this is a rough estimate of what I usually use when I make this. You really have to just guess and check until you find the right combination. A nice way to cut down on the calories and fat is to use light salad dressing.
