This is a lovely and refreshing salad that we highly recommend.

Ingredients:

1 English cucumber

1/2 yellow or white onion

1 pint grape or cherry tomatoes

Lime juice

Olive oil

Fresh herbs, such as parsley or mint

Slice the cucumber, then quarter the slices (if you like, before slicing the cucumber you can peel strips of the cucumber so that there are alternating green and white stripes along the outside). Dice the onion into small pieces. Half or quarter the tomatoes, depending on their size. Place all of the chopped vegetables into a container and mix thoroughly. Drizzle with olive oil (about 2 tablespoons) and lime juice (2-3 tablespoons) until the mixture is thoroughly coated. Chop fresh herbs (we usually use parsley or mint, or both), and mix into the vegetables. You can serve it immediately, or let the mixture set for a bit.
