Cucumber, Tomato & Onion Salad

Cucumber, Tomato & Onion Salad

If summer were defined by a salad, this would be it. Cucumbers, tomatoes and onions are simply tossed with oil and vinegar dressing for a delicious garden-fresh side salad. This was, no doubt, my mom’s favorite salad. This version, which mimics what she would create and keep in mammoth-sized Tupperware bowls in the refrigerator, features a vinegar-heavy dressing.
