Loved it. Next time I would try decreasing sugar to 1 TBSP. I also didn’t read recipe carefully, so put everything together, tossed, refrigerated and served 20 minutes later. FANTASTIC—onions were well marinated, everything melded and tasty. This one is a keeper.
LOVED this! The only reason for the 4 star and not 5 is that I think it needed less sugar and more salt. This is one I’ll make often.
I added tomatoes.
Very refreshing. This was a wonderful change from cucumber salad.
I had avocados that I needed to use up and this salad was the perfect solution. We loved the combination. I will definitely make it again!
i love this. thanks a millian
Very good and simply to make, it was a hit at work
Just finished making this. I did not have fresh dill so I used dill weed. I used Splenda in place of sugar, and not as much as I should have. A teaspoon of dill weed, less onions, and not as much of the vinegar. I tasted and tested as I slowly drizzled in the Italian flavored red wine vinegar. Absolutely delicious. Thank you for submitting.
Good flavors but the cucumbers were not crisp enough and the avocado was a little mushy. Maybe slice cucumber a bit thicker as well as the avocado.
So tasty and fresh! I used dried dill and it came out fine. I also diced up the garlic and left it in because we’re big garlic fans in this household, taking it out is just silly 😉 Overall a quick and easy recipe, I’ll definitely be adding this into our rotation!!
I made this and loved it! I will make it again.
I used half the sugar and chopped up the garlic and left it in. Good stuff.
This salad was amazing!! We gobbled it up.
Really delicious! I added cherry tomatoes like one of the pictures had- it didn’t add tons of flavor, but the color really popped. I also didn’t bother draining the mixture before adding the vinegar and saw no issues. The whole family, including the almost 3 year old, loved it!
Wow, this was delicious! I left out the onion and cut all of the spices and vinegar in half. Next time I will just make the whole salad ahead of time and refrigerate it until ready to serve.
This was awesome!! Loved the flavor. Def make again
This recipe was very refreshing and so good! I didn’t have any sugar at home but it turned out fine without.
Deliciously Refreshing. I substituted basil for dill, and rice wine vinegar for red wine vinegar and added a little tomato for color. Yummmm.
Great salad! Easy, simple, and tasty! My husband said “Whoever came up with this is genius!”
this was really good, however, i didn’t use as much onion as it called for. i also added tomatoes which made it even better.
Loved it! Will definitely do it again. It is tangy and sweet, perfect for my taste!
