Vinegared Cucumber Dish

I found some FREE time =) Whoot whoot. This is going to be VERY quick because the state of my apartment is offically a disaster zone! 0_o I blame this on my kids, lol. Anyways, whenever I am hungry and I want something light to eat, I ALWAYS find myself making this quick and easy dish. Quick and easy is like 5 minutes MAX. With summer here, my kids out of school (they love this too) I like to make this as a treat OR a veggie side for dinner. Let's get to it... It's vinegared cucumbers!!
ALL
you need are the following; 1. 1 or 2 large cucumbers 2. Vinegar 3. Ground Pepper 4. Ground Garlic 5. Ground Onion 5. Tupperware that is LARGE enough to hold cucumbers and vinegar (pref with a lid). 6. Peeler (peel off skin of cucumber) 7. Knife (Veggie cutting knife, if you have) **5 and 6 are OPTIONAL** (You don't need to add chopped onion, I prefer the EXTRA zing. You also don't need to peel off skin of cucumber, BUT I choose to). Okay, FIRST thing first...have all items close by. Wash off cucumber(s) in luke-hot water for 10 seconds. Grab your peeler, and peel of entire skin of cucumber. Rinse again... Grab veggie cutting knife and thinly cut cucumber from front to back. Chop off the front end and back ends though. With Tupperware, add cucumbers and 1 1/2 cup of vinegar. Add in 1 teaspoon-1 tablespoon of ground pepper (this depends on your liking). Add in 1 teaspoon-1 tablespoon of ground garlic. Add in 1 teaspoon of ground onion (optional). Grab a spoon, and mix the cucumbers, vinegar, pepper, garlic, and onion so that the cucumbers get soaked with all ingredients. Cover up this dish and let sit in refrigerator for 20 minutes-half hour. ENJOY (Sometimes I eat just as is when I'm done with all steps. The more you let sit in the refrigerator , the more taste the cucumbers will have).
