Ingredients

  • 2 large cucumbers, peeled or unpeeled, cut into about 2x1/2-inch sticks
  • 2 medium tomatoes, cut into wedges
  • 1 small onion, sliced
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon chopped fresh basil leaves or 1/4 teaspoon dried basil leaves
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • Bacon flavor bits or chips

Steps

  • 1
    Arrange cucumbers, tomatoes and onion in 2-quart shallow glass or plastic dish. Stir together remaining ingredients except bacon flavor bits; pour over vegetables.
  • 2
    Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours to blend flavors; sprinkle with bacon flavor bits just before serving.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Going on a picnic? Make and take this salad in a plastic bag with a zipper top. When you get to your picnic site, simply spoon it into a serving dish.
  • tip 2
    If your cucumbers are young, you can skip the peeling step. It’s only when cucumbers mature that their peels toughen slightly, making peeling necessary.
