This is really good. I also added dill weed as others did, and then threw in some poppy seeds. Went very well with the grilled pork steaks(fixed with a BBQ rub from this site). Will keep this as we are always overrun with tomatoes and cukes this time of year!!

My family loved this recipe! Based on the other reviews I added dill weed and a couple splashes of white vinegar.

I like this salad. I added Miracle Whip and sour cream in equal amounts. Left out the pepper though. Not a pepper person.

My daughter didn't complain about it but she didn't love it and I thought it was okay, but I won't make it again. Maybe it needed something on top like a little bit of baccos.

Pretty good for a cold summer salad. Be sure to serve very, very well chilled. I added parmesean cheese and added a little vinegar to the mix. Next time I think a little feta cheese might do the trick.

Yummy salad! I added 1/2 tsp dill weed and it added lovely flavor. I only used 1/2 tsp of pepper and that was enough for my family. I only used 2 tomatoes and thought that was enough too.

I love these kinds of salads! I added a splash (more like 1 TBS) of basalmic vinegar, and 1 tsp basil, and omitted the onion...not crazy for that veggie :)

I thought this was good. It was a nice change from salad. I did add about 1/2 tsp dried dill to give a little extra flavor. Went great with the Oregon Salmon Patties from this website.

Made this for my hubby and he really didn't care for it. In fact the more of it he ate the less he liked it. Too much pepper (and I only used half of the recommended amount), not enough of something else that we really couldn't put a finger on, and the garlic didn't mix well with the other flavors. Was worth trying once I guess, but won't be making again.

This is the salad that my grandmother started me on more than 50 years ago and I still love it. This recipe used garlic and that was something my grandmother(a real country girl) didn't know existed. But I love it. I also grated a carrott and added it alsong with a small diced onion and yellow squash. Great way to get kids to eat fresh veggies.

This was a very refreshing salad to have in the frig to pick on when I got the munchies. I thought it called for too much pepper. I love garlic so I halfed the pepper and added garlic salt instead.
