Cucumber Pickled Salad
When I say pickled I don’t mean the typical 8-week length of pickling process. This cucumber salad was I guess in a way marinated in vinegar and a few seasoning to create a nice side dish for a fish fry meal or grilled meat. I remember eating this kind of pickled salad from my childhood and it had been a while since I’ve made it so I decided to partner it with the leftover dirty rice from the beef burrito to compliment the breaded fried fish.

Instructions
