Easy Summer Tomato and Cucumber Salad

Summer means BBQ's, picnics, and pool parties. It is hard to know what type of food to bring to these outings, especially if the dish is going to be sitting out for a couple of hours. That is why I came up with this easy Summer Tomato and Cucumber Salad, which is refreshing and can withstand sitting outside since it does not have a mayo based dressing.

This easy tomato and cucumber salad is the perfect side dish for any summer BBQ.




I recently took this to our church picnic and it was a hit! You only need about 5 minutes and four ingredients to make this easy side dish!

Ingredients:

1 large cucumber
20 small tomatoes (I used a colorful mixture)
4 oz Feta cheese
1/4 cup vinaigrette dressing

Slice the large cucumber into bite sized pieces and half the tomatoes, then place in a medium bowl.

This refreshing side is the perfect compliment to chicken, burgers, or BBQ and is a great way to use up your veggies if you have a garden! You can easily add onions or peppers and switch out the cheese if you do not like Feta.
