A simple cucumber salad with tomatoes, onion, and tangy vinegar dressing. So crisp and refreshing!

Ingredients

Instructions
- Make the dressing: Add all dressing ingredients to a small bowl and whisk to combine.
- Thinly slice cucumbers (peeled if desired) and thinly slice onion. Dice tomatoes, removing excess juice. Place in a large mixing bowl.
- Pour dressing over salad. Toss to combine. Adjust flavors as desired (more vinegar, salt, herbs).
- Enjoy immediately or refrigerate in a sealed container for an hour to let flavors further combine.
Notes
- *Herbs: Fresh herbs like dill, parsley, or basil work very well in addition to the dried oregano. I highly recommend adding fresh dill if you have it.
- Make it sweet: Add agave, sugar, or other sweetener to the dressing.
- Make it spicy: Add about 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper (more/less) or crushed red pepper flakes.
- Garlic variation: Add 1 clove minced garlic to dressing. Or lightly sauté first to help mellow raw garlic.
- Yield: Recipe makes about 8 cups salad.
