This is a very simple, refreshing side salad that I make when I have a lot of cucumber.  I use a mandoline to do the thin slicing of the cucumber and red onion.  It makes it super fast to prepare.  Add salt to taste…I always under-salt it and have to add in more later.  I got the recipe from Everyday Food.

• 1 English cucumber, halved and thinly sliced
• 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
• 2 Tbl fresh lemon juice
• 1 Tbl olive oil
• 1/4 tsp sugar
• salt & pepper
• 2 Tbl chopped fresh dill

1. Combine cucumber, onion, lemon juice, oil, and sugar; season with salt and pepper.  Let stand 10 minutes.
2. Stir in dill.  Chill.
