This was a nice cool, refreshing salad. I did use home grown cherry tomatoes and home grown cucumbers that were given to me. I made 2 bowls, one I added fresh dill. They were both very good and my family loved them both. This is a good way to use up garden vegetables and it goes with any meal. It taste best when you let mariande for several hours. Try it, you will like it!!

I agree with Dee, this is the way Southerners make cucumber salad, been doing this for many years. It is a good recipe, but isn't a new one. I was looking for a new way to use fresh cucumbers. This is good, but been using this for many years!

My daughters loved the movie, Fried Green Tomatoes and after watching it, they wanted me to make fried tomatoes. I used to try to get them to eat them before the movie came out and they wouldn't touch them. This is a southern summer staple. I fix them for my daughters and grandchildren during the summer. I have used slightly ripened tomatoes as well and as long as they are firm, they will turn out great. Fried tomatoes are a GREAT side dish, but especially in the summer months when fresh garden tomatoes are used. You can NOT go wrong with this delicious recipe.
