Perfect as a side at your next barbecue, this Bloody Mary Salad features cucumber, tomato, and onion. But the real star is the dressing which features Ubon’s Bloody Mary mixture. It has a bit of spice that is perfectly balanced by the cool cucumbers.
If you can’t get the Ubon’s mix then you can try with alternate brands or even your own homemade version. It can also be made with any tomato-based vegetable juice.
These instructions say to let the salad sit for at least two hours. At this point, it has started to soften but still has some bite to it. If you like it softer and the flavors blended even more don’t be scared to leave it overnight.
Let the salad marinate for at least two hours so that the vinegar breaks down the vegetables a little bit.
The BBQ Ninja shares his hands-on approach to making this dish.
Cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions are the bulk of this salad but it is the Bloody Mary dressing that is the real star.
