A light and healthy Mediterranean-style salad made by finely chopping cucumber and waxy tomatoes and dressing them with a fresh lemon sauce.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Waxy tomatoes, which are more flavorful and tender than firm sandwich tomatoes, work best in this salad.
  • If fresh lemon is unavailable, lemon juice can be substituted, but mincing the lemon directly adds a much better texture and aroma.
  • If you toss a large batch in advance, the vegetables will release a lot of water, so it's best to store the vegetables and sauce separately for the next day's portion.

Recommended for

  • Those who want a light, easy-on-the-stomach meal for diet management.
  • Those looking for a fresh salad recipe that can be made quickly without heat.
  • Those who need a simple make-ahead meal prep menu.
