Summer Tomato, Onion & Cucumber Salad

Great side or Entree Salad! I was raised in New Orleans, and this is a staple at any time of the year!! We tossed the salad and let marinade overnight in the fridge....oh, and we also added fresh mushrooms, quartered, to the mix and, then marinate.

Absolutely love this salad! It tastes like summer and is so simple to make. I like to use roma tomatoes and english cucumber and typically use green onions or chives as the herb. Yum!Pros: Quick, Easy & Delish

Delicious and easy! This recipe is not only easy to make, but it's light and delicious. The perfect summer salad that can go with everything from chicken to fish. I followed the recipe exactly, and it brought rave reviews from family and friends at our picnic. Nothing was left in a large double bowl! I love recipes that make me look good; both in shape and in the kitchen!

Fresh and Tasty Summer Treat I've made a similar salad to this for years using red wine vinegar and EVOO, but I occasionally change the vinegar to rice wine vinegar. If I don't have Vidalia onions, I soak the ones I have for at least an hour in ice water. Pros: Quick Cons: Not as good in winter

Quick and refreshing This has been on my rotating list of side dishes for a few months now, and it's delicious every time I make it. I use cherry or grape tomatoes and cut them in half which makes them the perfect size for this salad. I usually use red onions because those are what I have on hand, and I reduce the amount of onion because it's a bit overpowering for me. Next time I'll try a vidalia and see if that makes the onion flavor more subtle. This is an absolutely amazing salad though, and I would definitely recommend it. I usually use parsley for the herb, but have also made this without the herbs added.

Light Summer Salad Love this salad. Very light and refreshing. I made half the recipe and it only took about 6 minutes to make. For the fresh herb I used basil and it tastes great with this salad.
