Tomato and Cucumber Salad
This is a great side dish for the Late Summer when cucumbers and tomatoes are in season. It only takes about 15 minutes to make this dish. I could only find good cherry tomatoes but if you're at a farmers market grab any and all types of yummy tomatoes!
Ingredients:
1 lbs. ripe heirloom tomatoes, cut into chunks
8 oz. cherry and teardrop-shaped tomatoes, halved
1 English cucumber, peeled in alternating strips and cut into half moons
10 large basil leaves, torn into pieces
2 tbsp. red wine vinegar
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Directions:
1. Cut vegetables
2. Mix vinegar, oil, salt and pepper in a small container (I use a measuring cup)
3. Gently combine all ingredients in a bowl and allow to set for a few minutes(5-10 minutes). Toss again and serve.
