    Marinated Veggie Salad
    Serves 5 approx. 8 carbs per serving

    5.25 oz. cucumber, chopped
    1.5 oz. onion, chopped
    2.5 oz. tomato, chopped

    a little salt and pepper to taste
    1 tablespoon of oil
    1/2 cup white vinegar
    3/4 cup water
    1 packet of Splinda

    I mix it all up and let it sit in the fridge overnight before serving so it tastes good. I use a slotted spoon to drain the liquid so all I actually eat is the flavored veggies.
