The perfect side dish for any outdoor meal. Easy to prepare. Great in hot weather. Choose tomatoes in season.

Whether you are planning your Memorial Day meal or thinking about July 4th; this salad is quick and easy, colorful, crunchy, and delicious!

Be sure to chill it if the weather is warm. Pair it with iced tea over lots of ice. It’s perfect for grilled hamburgers.

The vinegar mellows the onions. The cucumber adds crunch and color. I prefer colorful and tasty heirloom tomatoes.
