I wouldn't really call this pickled cucumber "salad", more pickled cucumbers. But I love this recipe. I have made it several times. It's quick and easy and very healthy. My husband loves it as well.

I added about 2 TB of sugar and skipped the garlic. It made my day. Red onion just hit it off. May try a little celery seed next time too.

Watch out for the crushed red pepper unless you like cucumber salad to have a real kick.
