Cucumbers on Greens for Salad
From Dorothy McNett's recipes at www.dorothymcnett.com.
2-3 small pickling cucumbers or 1 regular cucumber
2-3 thin slices sweet onion rings
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
2-3 tablespoons raw sugar
freshly ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
salad greens
green and black olives, as desired (or use seedless grapes!)
Thinly slice the cucumbers and onion. Combine cucumbers, onions, vinegar, sugar, pepper and salt in a bowl. This can be done several hours ahead or even overnight, or use right away. They become more "pickled" as they stand. Place salad greens and olives in a salad bowl or arrange on individual plates and top with the cucumber mixture.
