Cucumber Salad

This salad was adapted from a salad book my mom has (not sure of the name).  I wanted a nice light side for our Memorial Day cookout to complete my meal.  It is really light and refreshing. Hope you try it soon! :)

Ingredients:
3 large cucumbers, chopped
1/2 medium red onion, sliced

4 garlic cloves, minced
4 Tbsp apple cider vinegar (Bragg's brand is best)
