Farmer’s Market Week: Cucumber-Tomato Salad

Everyone has their favorite way to eat those fresh tomatoes from the garden. This salad is my go-to. And so far I’ve been averaging enough cucumbers and tomatoes to make a batch every few days.

Cucumber Tomato Salad:

• 2 large cucumbers
• 3 large tomatoes
• 3 green onions or 1/2 small onion
• 1 large green pepper (opt)
• 1 jalapeno (opt)

Mix together:

• ¼ cup mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp vinegar (apple cider or wine vinegar)*
• 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning*
• salt & pepper

large bowl

Thinly slice the cucumbers, onions, pepper & dice the tomatoes.  Toss with dressing.  Salt and pepper to taste.  Serves 4-6.

*you can substitute 1/4 Italian dressing for vinegar and Italian seasoning.
