Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces saltine crackers
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium cucumber
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Gather all your ingredients. Ensure the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and parsley are thoroughly washed.
Roughly chop the cherry tomatoes into quarters. Peel and dice the cucumber into small cubes. Finely dice the red onion.
Crumble the saltine crackers into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the chopped cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion into the bowl with the crackers.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined. This will serve as the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the cracker and vegetable mixture. Gently fold the ingredients together to evenly coat the salad with the dressing. Be careful not to overmix, as the crackers can become too soggy.
Chop the fresh parsley finely and sprinkle it over the salad for a touch of freshness and garnish.
Serve immediately to enjoy the perfect balance of crunch and creaminess. Best consumed fresh as the crackers will soften over time.
