Ingredients

  • 1 medium cabbage shredded
  • 1 large cucumber thinly sliced
  • 3 medium carrots sliced
  • 1/2 medium onion chopped
  • 1/2 medium green pepper chopped
  • 3/4 cup white vinegar
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 teaspoons salt

Instructions

  • Combine the cabbage, cucumber, carrots, green pepper, and onion in a large bowl.
  • In a small bowl combine the vinegar, sugar, oil, and salt and whisk well.
  • Pour over the cabbage mixture and toss until well blended. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving. Drain some of the excess liquid if needed.

Notes

  1. To make the recipe faster you can buy shredded cabbage from the store. If you are using a head of cabbage, use a food processor. 
  2. You don't have to peel the cucumber if you do not want to. I like leaving the peel on.
  3. If you like you can use an English cucumber in the salad instead of a regular one.
  4. There will be a lot of liquid that will form after you make the salad, you can drain some off if you like, but it does not hurt the salad to leave it in.
  5. The salad can be store in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days.
