Cucumber Tomato Salad
Report
This salad is an amazing combination of bright summer flavors. Seek out farm-fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, and herbs. The dressing brings it all together. And it comes together in about 15 to 20 minutes!

Ingredients
- 4 large cucumbers peeled and cut into bite-sized pieces
- 4 large tomatoes beefsteaks or heirlooms, stemmed and cut into bite-sized pieces
- ½ red onion chopped
- ¼ cup mint fresh, chopped
- ¼ cup chives finely chopped
- ½ cup parsley fresh, chopped, plus extra for garnish
- 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1½ teaspoon kosher salt or more, to taste
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Add the cucumbers, tomatoes, onion, mint, chives, and parsley in a large bowl.
- Make the dressing by adding the apple cider vinegar, red wine vinegar, extra-virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper in a jar with a lid. With the lid on, vigorously shake for about 1 minute, until fully combined and emulsified.
- Pour the dressing over the salad. Use two large spoons, or your hands, to mix the salad until all components are coated with the dressing.
- If desired, transfer to a serving platter, garnish with extra chopped parsley and serve at once. Or, cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for up to 1 hour.
Notes
- NOTE: View the video in the upper portion of the post for visual reference for making the salad.
- We don't recommend making the salad more than several hours in advance. The tomatoes and cucumbers will release water and make the salad very wet.
- You can prep everything up to 12 hours in advance, keep in air-tight containers in the fridge, and then assemble it up to 1 hour before serving.
