How many ingredients does it take to call it a salad?

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.

If i chop up a cucumber and throw it in a bowl with some vinegarette, I call it a cucumber salad.

I call that a bowl of cucumber

tomato, tomatoe. Not that I'd ever put tomatoes in a cucumber salad. That's heathen shit.
