Spicy Cucumber Salad

I love cucumber salad in the summer, it's a great make ahead dish to keep on hand in the fridge for up to a week.

Ingredients

2 English cucumbers
1 Red onion
2 tbs honey
2 tbs EVOO
3/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup water
1 tbs red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp Hot Shot**
A few dashes of hot sauce
1 tsp dill
a few dashes of salt


1. Slice cucumbers thin, if you like you can remove the peel, but I usually leave them on.

2. Slice onion in to very thin rings

3. Combine liquid ingredients and use a whisk to combine it well.

4. Add spices and stir well.

5. Lastly add in your cucumbers and onions, toss well to coat.

6. Refrigerate at least an hour, and up to one week.


** McCormic makes Hot Shot, it is a black and Red Pepper blend, feel free to use just black pepper if that is what you have on hand.
