Egyptian Salad

Egyptian Salad. Meet my friend, Pam.

Pam is a Midwest girl who now lives in Egypt with her husband. They are teachers there. She has made a hobby of making cultural faux paus and learning to cook with simple ingredients. She has ridden too many camels and has actually exclaimed, “Do I have to go to the pyramids again?!” (Haven’t we all?) I must introduce you to this talented, fun, and oh-so-talented friend of mine.  You can read about her adventures on her website Pam in the Sand. She’s a kindred heart of this Northwest girl, only, you know. She’s making salad in the dry desert and I make desserts over here where we get nearly tropical levels of rainfall every year. 

Egyptian Salad

  • 2 cucumbers, cubed
  • 1 onion. diced
