Summer is the perfect time to find a tasty, yet simple cucumber salad recipe. Cucumbers are 96 percent water, which makes them a refreshing and juicy vegetable that you can enjoy plain or with minimal additions. A classic way to prepare cucumbers is to toss them in a vinegar and sugar mixture for a fresh pickle-like salad. The salad takes minutes to prepare and makes an affordable side dish or snack.
