Marinated Cucumbers, Onions, and Tomatoes

I LOVE cucumbers and onions that my brother in law always makes every summer.  I have asked him for the recipe but it always "its a little of this and a little of that".  I do not do well with guesstimate directions.  I need to know exactly how much of this and that to put into a recipe.  I am sure I drive everyone nuts with that.  So, I searched online and this is what I found.  I knew my hubby would love it and he does.  The tomatoes were an added bonus and when the neighbor offered some cucumbers from their garden I was sold. 

Marinated Cucumbers, Onions, and Tomatoes

3 medium cucumbers, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick

1 medium onion, sliced and separated into rings

3 medium tomatoes, cut into wedges

1/2 cup vinegar

1/4 cup sugar

1 cup water

2 tsp salt                      

1 tsp ground black pepper

1/4 cup oil

        

 

Cut all veggies and combine into a large bowl.  In a smaller bowl, mix all the remaining ingredients and pour over the veggies.  Toss well to mix.  Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.

 

Hope you enjoy this on a hot summer night as much as we do.
