Pretty good. The dressing did taste a little more watered down than I was hoping for but it was still a good side dish.

This was the best Cucumber and tomato salad I've ever had. I used yellow onions instead of green onions. My wife doesn't like a strong vinegar tast but she loved this salad. Thanks Jan for the great recipe.

Just OK, but I think this would be better with maybe 3/4 cup of water. Everyone agreed that the dressing tasted watered down. Hubby said he would enjoy it with another type of vinegar. I will try it again using a different vinegar and less water.

I grew up on this stuff and it is the essence of summer! Hint: Dont throw out the leftover vinegar dressing...leave in the frig and keep adding the veggies out of your garden. he salad is always ready when you are. That's what my Grandma did.

Very good. I also topped it with a little feta cheese and it really added to the taste.

A great salad to use up my summer bounty of tomatoes and cucumbers. I used white onion, otherwise followed the recipe. The whole family enjoyed this salad with our baby back ribs. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

Yes! This is the dish I remember my Mom making during the hot dog days of summers past. She used to make a huge batch and put it out family style in a bowl on top of crushed ice to keep it cold. Yum. Thanks for the joy you gave me finding this gem again.

Very simple and delicious! It worked out great for a BBQ with our neighbors. I sliced the cucumber very thin and used cherry tomatoes and thin sliced red onion. I did add a bit more sugar than called for and decreased the amount of water. After a few hours it was ready to serve. There wasn't any left!

So tasty. This recipe is very easy. I had an Italian themed dinner and served pizza, cesar salad and this cucumber tomato salad everybody loved it. I didn't have enough time to mix up the dressing so I just used a vinegrate that I already had and it still worked out. Thank you for sharing.

This is a wonderful summertime salad. Actually as soon as the tomatoes get good, this is on our table almost every meal. My mother-in-law made a similar salad with a "splash" of this and a "smidge" of that--but could never give me the right proportions to replicate hers. My husband says this is just as good. Thank you!

Everytime I go to the buffets I look for this salad. It is the best. I am so glad I found this recipe. It is very yummy and much better than the buffets. Very easy to make as well. Has the perfect ting. Only thing I did differently was used red onion.

This is such a great salad, and continues to get better over the next couple days after you make it as the vinegar soaks in. I always make a large portion as it does keep for at least three days.
