Cucumber-Tomato Salad
I look for easy ways to use fresh veggies during this laid-back time of year, so here is another simple recipe for when you have extra cucumbers and tomatoes.
This is a light tasty salad from my childhood. Usually we use sunflower oil, but it can be replaced with olive or vegetable oil, or alternatively mix the vegetables with sour cream or yogurt. You can choose whichever herbs you like best such as cilantro, chives, green onions, dill, parsley or basil or whatever is growing in your garden. For some spice, add a little bit of finely chopped garlic. If you have some radish or sweet peppers, they can also be easily added to this salad.
Experiment with what you have growing in your garden.
