Creamy Cucumber Gelatin Salad

Submitted by: COOKINGQUEEN75
Home Town: Greenville, Ohio, USA
This delicious gelatin salad is great for Christmas because of it's green color but so refreshing to eat on a hot summer evening. Just a little cucumber makes it not too overwhelming. I prefer using salad dressing but you can substitute mayonnaise. The longer it sits in the refrigerator the better it is.

Whenever I pack a picnic, this salad comes along. It's great with grilled entrees or sandwiches. In summer and fall, it's among my most requested side dishes. It keeps well in the refrigerator, so you can make it ahead of time.

This is a very simple recipe from one of the best cooks ever -- my grandmother. The proportions are a little ambiguous, use your eye -- that's how the best cooks do it! The secret -- be sure and dry the cucumbers well!

Vinegar with a bit of sugar "pickles " the cucumbers and red onion slices nicely. Serve as is, or spoon over grilled hamburgers or layer between two slices of cheese in a grilled cheese sandwich.

My mother always made this salad, so I tried it on my future husband when we were courting. I discovered later that he didn't like vinegar in his foods, but he learned to enjoy this salad and called it piccalilli. -Jan Peterson Mesa, Arizona
