Easy to make, light and tasty.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups thinly-sliced chilled cucumbers (I use one long and skinny cucumber)
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup thinly-sliced fresh onions (50% ratio to cucumbers)
• 1/4 cup dill pickle juice (or 1/4 cup vinegar)
• 1/8 cup water
• 1 tablespoon sugar (or a 1 packet of sugar substitute)
• 1/2 teaspoon dill weed
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• cherry tomatoes to taste (optional)

Instructions:

• Mix cucumber slices and onions in a medium-size bowl
• sprinkle with salt.
• Mix remaining ingredients (except tomatoes) together in a measuring cup or bowl.
• Pour over cucumbers and onions and toss lightly.
• Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Add cherry tomatoes
• Stir and serve
