I've had a page tagged in one of my cookbooks just waiting until I had fresh tomatoes and cucumbers. After my visit to the farmers market this week I decided to use the cherry tomatoes for this salad.
I knew I would love it cause it has vinegar in it.
I wasn't disappointed.....it was delicious. (all gone now)
Marinated Tomato and Cucumber Salad
Dressing:
1/2 cup white wine vinegar
3 T sugar
1 T olive oil
1 tsp dried basil
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
Salad:
2 cups chopped tomatoes
2 cups chopped cucumbers
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
Combine dressing ingredients and mix well. Combine salad ingredients. Add dressing to salad and mix. Marinate 4 to 24 hours (if you can stay out of it)
I made half a recipe since I figured I would be the only one eating it. Perfect side salad for almost anything.

yum...and I have everything to make it!
No doubt it is good! We have fabulous olive oil that we bring from Jordan and it makes any salad absolutely delicious with just a bit of salt, pepper, lemon juice and garlic powder. Yummo! Hope you are having a great day. Tammy
