Zucchini Salad with Red Onion

Name: Zucchini Salad with Red Onion
Prep time: 15 min
Total time: 15 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar; 1 tablespoon olive oil; Coarse salt and ground pepper; 1/2 small red onion, very thinly sliced; 4 small zucchini (about 1 1/2 pounds total)

Raw zucchini, sliced into ribbons with a peeler, is mild-tasting; a short soak in vinegar and oil mellows and softens the onion but leaves enough bite to keep it interesting.
