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 mean when you put chopped iceberg lettuce and tomatoes, it's a salad... So... Two?

Last time I tossed a salad it was two ingredients, so I think you're correct.

I would lettuce + cucumber, too. Begrudgingly, but I would accept it.
