Cucumber, Onion & Tomato Relish

Ingredients:

  • 2 large cucumbers, diced
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 3 medium tomatoes, diced
  • 1/4 cup white vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced cucumbers, chopped onion, and diced tomatoes. Gently stir to mix all the ingredients well.
