Ingredients

• ½ cucumber, chopped into bite-sized pieces

• A handful of grape tomatoes, cut into halves

• 2 teaspoons olive oil

• 1 teaspoon white vinegar

• 2-3 basil leaves, chopped (optional)

• Salt to taste

Method

1. Add cucumbers and grape tomatoes to a bowl.

2. Drizzle olive oil and vinegar on top.

3. Season with a pinch of salt.

4. Toss everything to coat.

5. Garnish with fresh basil (if using).

Notes:

• Cherry tomatoes also work well in this. They’re usually a little bigger so you may wish to cut them into quarters.

• I often make a very simple version of this with just cucumber, olive oil, vinegar, and a pinch of salt — fresh and delicious!
