Cucumber Tomato Salad

Cucumber Tomato Salad

Salads are my favorite food group- however, sometimes it gets boring to always have a salad sitting on a bunch of leaves. So to mix it up, I used my spiralizer (a knife is fine too) to slice thin this cucumber really thin and noodley to make this cucumber tomato salad. Actually, to be truthful, my father who was my sous-chef on the night this salad was made put a cucumber through the spiralizer instead of a zucchini, and voila- the salad was born!

I love this salad because it’s refreshing and light and you can have on its own or as part of any meal. You can also add any other veggie or herb or spice to this salad to make it your own!

Enjoy!
