Cilantro Cucumber Salad

My husband and I liked this pretty well. Reading the reviews I let is sit overnight. then had it a day later and it soaked the flavors even more. I added more chili powder and cilantro becase my husband adores both.

This was good but it was lacking a little something. Next time I will try a little more cilantro onion and a splash of vinegar. I did add a little extra salt and let it set over night. I think both of those things helped. I will try this again adding the above ideas.

You know what? I have to ammend my earlier comment - give this salad a day to marinate and it is GREAT! I took my leftovers for lunch today and I enjoyed it much more than last night. Make it a day ahead.

This was AWESOME! I served it with grilled chicken and rice. I only had one cucumber in the house so I added 1/2 of a firm tomato and some red onion. I also added a little fresh mint and some black pepper. Delicious! My 4 year old son asked that I make it for dinner - Read more ...

Nice and easy accompaniment to a meal. Since I don't like too much chili powder I cut the amount in half. My husband thought it had a tad too much cilantro but I love cilantro so it was fine for me. (Fresh not dried cilantro is a must!) Definitely let this chill for at least - Read more ...
