3 med. cucumbers
1 clove garlic (or 1/8 tsp. garlic powder)
1/2 med. onion, thinly sliced and chopped fine (optional)
3/4 c. white vinegar (or your favorite wine vinegar)
1 tsp. sugar
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 tsp. parsley

Peel cucumbers outer skin. Slice crosswise 1/8 to 1/4 inch slices into medium size bowl. Slice and chop onion. Add onion, vinegar, garlic, sugar, salt, and pepper. Coat cucumber slices with vinegar and onion mixture. Top with parsley and chill salad for 2 hours. The longer the salad is marinated the better. Enjoy, this is one of our favorite summer salads.
