I got this recipe from an old-fashioned cookbook. Miner's wives used to make this as a refreshing lunch for the miners to have down in the dusty mines. Apparently no one really knows where the name "Chomp" came from unless it sounds like "chomp-chomp" when you eat it :) Anyway, it is very refreshing and very yummy and very healthy! Great combo huh? :)
2 large sliced cucumbers
1 large green pepper, diced
1 large onion, diced
2 firm, ripe tomatoes, cut in wedges
Vinaigrette Dressing:
1/2 Cup brown sugar
1/2 Cup water
1/2 Cup vinegar
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/8 tsp powdered thyme (I just used Italian Seasoning and it worked fine)
Combine fresh veggies. Mix up dressing, blend well. Mix dressing with veggies and chill for 1 hour before serving. Feel free to change up the veggies too.
