Ingredients

  • 1 large cucumber peeled, halved and thinly sliced
  • 4 tomatoes halved and thinly sliced
  • 1 small red onion peeled and sliced thin
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 Tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • pinch of Raw Sugar

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Place cucumber, tomatoes, onions and garlic into a bowl. Toss with olive oil, red wine vinegar, Italian seasoning, pepper, salt and sugar.
  2. Let stand for a bit at room temperature or in the fridge, about 15-30 minutes before stirring and serving. As the salad sits, liquid will accumulate. You can serve the salad with a slotted spoon to avoid the extra liquid. Another option is to use the extra liquid as a dressing when serving the salad over greens or to soak up the liquid with slices of crusty bread.

Notes

  • red wine vinaigrette
  • balsamic vinaigrette
  • white balsamic vinaigrette
  • Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. The vegetables will continue to release liquid, so give it a quick stir before serving and use a slotted spoon if you want to avoid extra moisture.
  • Use a different dressing: While I love the simplicity of this dressing, feel free to switch it up by using this red wine vinaigrette, balsamic vinaigrette or white balsamic vinaigrette.
