Easy Cucumber Heirloom Tomato Salad

Sometimes the simplest recipes are the best. I’ve made this simple 4 or 5 ingredient salad countless times this summer … even before I had fresh garden tomatoes and cucumbers, but it’s even better with the pretty multi-colored heirloom tomatoes and a crisp fresh from the garden cucumber.

It takes but 5 minutes to make, so I’ve made it for lunches and even for breakfast at work on several occasions. I just gobble it down every time, marveling at how this easy recipe can taste soooo good! I think it’s the fact that it really highlights and lets the cucumbers and tomatoes shine.

You don’t need anything complicated to make a really good cucumber tomato salad. Just some really good cucumbers, tomatoes, a little olive oil, a little granulated garlic, a little salt & pepper. I sometimes add a little feta, but most of the time, I leave that off.

I seriously hope you try this one!
