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.

Do you make your vinaigrette without salt and pepper and maybe those don't count? The ingredient science is very complex

I do, actually. For whatever reason I don't like most dressings but I enjoy just olive oil and a nice balsamic.
