Cucumber and Tomato Salad
Vine-ripened, hand-picked, sun-warmed, earth-scented tomatoes simply define the month of August for me. I've made this recipe mid-winter, and it flops every time. But then summer comes and I w-a-i-t i-m-p-a-t-i-e-n-t-l-y for the first real tomatoes. Soon enough, they start to overtake the house like some bad scene from Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, and something must be done with All That Rolling Red Goodness. This mixture will not disappoint. Ever.
Drinking the juice that remains in the bottom of the bowl is optional. Just remember to extend your pinky. You must have some class, you know.
Cucumber and Tomato Salad
2 whole cucumbers, chopped (peeling is optional)
2 whole tomatoes, diced
1/2 small onion, finely diced
1/2 small green pepper, chopped
garlic salt to taste
vegetable or olive oil to coat, optional
1 dash vinegar or lemon juice, optional
Mix vegetables in a medium sized bowl; toss with oil and vinegar. Sprinkle with garlic salt. Serve immediately.
The recipe is flexible. Just chop what you have on hand, what you like to eat, and season.
