Cucumber Tomato Salad

Cucumber Tomato Salad

Heirloom tomatoes are best when eaten fresh. They tend to run small, like cherry tomatoes, so we recommend just halving them for salads. The fresh, grassy taste of cucumbers tend to go well with the tartness of tomatoes. Cut a slice to make sure the cucumber isn’t too bitter. If it is, just peel the skin. With just a simple dressing of balsamic vinegar, olive oil, garlic, and fresh garden herbs like oregano and tarragon, you get a delicious salad that’s quick and easy to make. Crumble in some feta for protein and a salty kick.
