Ingredients

2 whole English cucumbers ends trimmed, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 small Roma tomatoes cut into 1/2-inch pieces
0.5 red onion halved and sliced thin
1/3 cup water
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
0.25 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
Feta cheese and/or avocado optional, for extra creaminess and flavor

Instructions

Chop cucumbers and tomatoes into 1/2-inch pieces. Slice red onion thin. Combine all in a large mixing bowl.
In a small jar, combine water, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. Shake well for 10 seconds until sugar dissolves.
Pour dressing over vegetables. Toss gently to coat.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to blend.
Drain excess liquid, sprinkle chopped dill on top, and stir again before serving. Optionally top with feta or avocado.

Notes

For a creamy twist, mix in crumbled feta or diced avocado just before serving. Great for summer meals and gatherings.
