This Cucumber Tomato Salad<\/strong> recipe is a classic Summer side dish that’s filled with sliced cucumbers, juicy tomatoes and thinly sliced onions, then tossed in a light and refreshing vinaigrette dressing. <\/em><\/p>\n Serve this delicious cucumber tomato onion salad with any grilled meats, baked salmon<\/a>, chicken kabobs<\/a> or even my favorite pork tenderloin<\/a>.<\/p>\n This year I am attempting to grow 4 different varieties of cucumbers in my garden. I’m so obsessed with this simple and easy recipe that I’m going to need a LOT of cucumbers to satisfy my cravings.<\/span><\/p>\n There really is no wrong time to make this bright and flavorful salad, but when the cucumbers and tomatoes are in peak season (Summer time)<\/strong>, that’s when this lovely side dish recipe shines.<\/p>\n I’m using the long English cucumbers<\/strong> in this recipe because the peels are nice and thin and the seeds are also really small and easy to eat.<\/p>\n If you don’t have English cucumbers, you can easily use regular cucumbers that are peeled.<\/p>\n If the seeds are too coarse, feel free to scoop them out before chopping and adding to the salad.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Not much is needed here, as we’re really wanting to let the fresh flavors of the cucumbers, tomatoes and onions shine. I’m using equal parts oil and vinegar because I simply adore how the vinegar really boosts the flavors.<\/p>\n PRO TIP:<\/strong> You can also use a white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar in place of the red wine vinegar. It’ll change the flavor slightly, but should still be amazing!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I’m sure you’re going to love this crisp and cool salad. It’s perfect for potlucks and parties too!<\/p>\nHow To Make Cucumber Tomato Salad<\/h2>\n
