Cucumber Salad with Caper Sauce

A balance of sweet and sour flavors in a sauce that the cucumbers taste good with. I use some jarred pickled vegetables along with dried herbs in this.

Ingredients:
1 jar pickled vegetables (cauliflower,carrot,celery,onion)
2 cucumbers, peeled
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon capers, drained
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions:
In a large mixing bowl combine capers
with sugar and stir to mix well.
Add in mayonnaise and stir to combine.
Drain jar of pickled vegetables and cut
into small sizes about 1/2" dice.
Slice cucumber four times lengthwise
then in other direction to make 1/2" dice.
Add cucumber, capers and vegetables in bowl
and stir to coat well, season with pepper.
Add in dried chives and parsley, mix well.
Place in a sealed container and refrigerate
until ready to serve chilled.
