How many ingredients does it take to call it a salad? (sh.itjust.works)

My significant other ate cucumbers and onion with some ranch. I called it a cucumber onion salad. She says there aren't enough ingredients to call it a salad, because "it takes multiple ingredients". I pointed out she had three and asked what the minimum is. She refuses to answer so I ask Lemmy.

I think 1 ingredient can be a salad as long as it's a very salady ingredient.

Lettuce?

Lettuce IS the salad.

It’s literally called salad (Salat) in German.
