A simple salad with potatoes, eggs and cucumber in a hurry. I had boiled potatoes and eggs, so all that remained was to add fresh cucumber and green onions. This salad reminded me of spring, I want more greenery quickly) Fresh cucumber goes well with boiled potatoes, and eggs add tenderness to the salad. In general, the products are obtained without a pronounced taste, but the addition of green onions and freshly ground pepper significantly enlivens it) Sour cream, it seems to me, is very appropriate here; with mayonnaise there would be a sharper taste. I liked the salad, it was tender and pleasant. In addition to the meat it makes a good side dish)

I prepared a salad with potatoes, eggs and cucumber. For some reason the combination of products reminded me of summer picnics))). A simple but very tasty salad. Perfect for a hearty snack, as a completely independent dish. By increasing the proportions of fresh cucumber, we get a lighter option (especially if you season it with vegetable oil). Thanks to the author for the recipe!
