Use What You Have: Cucumber & Tomato Salad


I hate wasting food so I like to make up recipes to use what I have, and the other day the item was cucumbers. When recipes don't just come to you, this search engine by Allrecipe.com is great because you can put in the ingredients you have and it searches for recipes, brilliant!

Ingredients:
2 Cucumbers
4 Roma Tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon of dried basil 
(fresh basil would be better, but I did not have any)
Salt & Pepper to taste 




Ingredients
Dice the tomatoes & add to mixing bowl
Dice the cucumbers & add to mixing bowl
Add olive oil & vinegar to bowl
Add Basil, Salt, and Pepper to the bowl

Mix it all together and refrigerate for a little
while so all the flavors soak in

Perfect pop of color to add to dinner

Enjoy!
