GRANDMA'S CUCUMBER AND ONION SALAD
Both of my grandmothers made this salad every summer when their gardens produced baskets of cucumbers. It's a cool, fresh side dish for any meal. One of my grandmas omitted the green pepper and the celery seed. She also put ice in it to chill it quickly and cut the vinegar taste.

COOL AS A CUCUMBER SALAD (GRAND PRIZE WINNER)
This recipe was just printed in our local Coastal Point weekly in the section, "Marie Cooks". This recipe won not only the salads category in an Iowa dairy contest, but also the sweepstakes prize. I'm posting it here for future reference. Use a pretty 1-quart glass dish for molding the salad. When unmolded on a plate, she garnished the top with a ring of thin cucumber slices, filled the center with sliced strawberries, and placed sprigs of parsley around the base. Very attractive! Note: Chill time should be no less than 2 -3hours.
