Tomato-Cucumber Salad

Tomato Cucumber Salad is a great summer time treat. Refreshing and light, it is a nice break from salad greens. You can eat them all year round, however a fresh cucumber with garden tomatoes is hard to beat.

Ingredients

Tomatoes (Small, large, or multiple blends of cherry)

Paper thin tomato slices

Oregano

Parsley

Crushed Sea Salt
Crushed Pepper/Garlic Seasoning
Cracked Pepper
Red Wine Vinegar
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Fresh minced/sliced garlic

Cut the tomatoes in smaller slices. Romas can be sliced, larger tomatoes quartered, or cherry tomatoes cut in half. You want to have a hearty slice of tomato. Do not dice. You will however dice the paper thin cucumbers. You want them to stick to the tomato brine once finished. Add the rest of the ingredients, and be sure to immerse everything repeatedly with a spoon. You was the flavors to immerse themselves from top to bottom. Cover and refrigerate for about 1-2 hrs before serving. This allows the flavors to soak in the tomatoes and cucumber.

I serve mine with toasted sunflower seed bread. Sooo Good!
