TikTok's "Favorite Salad" is a fresh and easy Cucumber, Tomato, and Red Onion salad. Super healthy with oil and vinegar, this salad recipe is perfect for lunch or a BBQ side dish. Makes in minutes!
Prep all vegetables - cucumbers should be halved, grape tomatoes should be quartered, and red onion should be sliced thin.
Combine sugar, vinegar, oil, salt, dill, and black pepper in a small bowl and whisk. The dressing won't totally combine as the vinegar and oil will not fully mix.
In a medium bowl, add prepped vegetables and pour dressing over the top. Mix together well until the dressing has coated all sides of the cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions.
Marinate salad in the fridge for a minimum of 4 hours, but for BEST flavor, overnight (24 hours).
Stir any settled dressing well before serving.

Notes
Red Onion NoteWhile the original salad has only 1/4th cup red onions, we personally found that this salad does better with 1/2 cup diced red onions. How long does tomato-cucumber salad keep? We believe that this recipe can be eaten for about three days when cold and sealed in an airtight container. Can this salad be made in advance? This salad SHOULD Be made in advance. This particular recipe tastes best cold and after 24 hours or marinating.What are common variations to this TikTok salad recipe? If wanting to add other fresh vegetables, cut up red, yellow, and green peppers would go great. Additionally, thinly sliced carrots would bring color and crunch and go great with the oil and vinegar dressing. Other great additions would be olives, feta cheese (similar to a Greek Salad recipe), blue cheese, sweet onion, balsamic, or minced garlic.Can this salad be made keto? Just remove the sugar.
