Fire and Ice Salad


    2 whole Tomatoes, Chopped
    2 whole Cucumbers Peeled and Sliced
    1 whole Purple Onion, Chopped
    1 cup Distilled White Vinegar
    1 cup water
    1 cup Sugar


Cut up your tomatoes. You can cut them in slices, chunks or dice them. I prefer thin slices.

Peel and cut cucumbers.

Cut up your onion. I slice mine and then cut them in half so that you have fairly large slices.

Combine all your vegetables in a bowl.

To make your dressing, combine 1 cup water, vinegar and sugar and stir well.

You can add equal amounts of all if you would like, but this combination of 1 cup of all of them works fine for me.

The sugar will not completely dissolve but that is okay because it is going to sit in the fridge for a while and marinate before you eat it.

Pour dressing over the vegetables and stir well.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours but more if you prefer.

It will make more dressing as it sits there. I recommend stirring it after an hour.
