													As you see in the roundup, Mediterranean diet recipes are easy and packed with flavor from vegetables, herbs, and all-natural ingredients. This simple Mediterranean salad recipe with tomatoes, cucumbers, and parsley, is an everyday recipe we eat often on the Mediterranean diet. That is why I am including it here for your convenience. You can change it up by adding feta cheese, chickpeas, or even a cup of cooked couscous to turn it into a meal!

                                Ingredients
- 6 Roma tomatoes, diced (about 3 cups diced tomatoes)
 - 1 large English cucumber, or hot-house cucumber, diced
 - 1/2 to 3/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
 - kosher salt, to taste
 - 1/2 tsp black pepper
 - 1 tsp ground sumac
 - 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, try a robust like Greek Early Harvest or Hojiblanca Spanish EVOO
 - 2 tsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
 
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, place the diced tomatoes, cucumbers, and parsley. Season with kosher salt and toss. Set aside for 5 minutes or so.
 - Add the sumac, olive oil, and lemon juice. Give the salad a gentle toss. Enjoy!
 
Notes
- For best flavor, set the salad aside for a few minutes before serving. This will give the flavors time to meld.
