Notes
Tip: taste your cucumber before mixing in. If it's on the bitter side, peel it. If not, no need to peel! You can substitute regular tomato chunks for the cherry tomatoes, but it may be a bit more watery. Drain them or dry them a bit with a paper towel to prevent a wet salad. Add red onion, radish, or whatever else is calling to you for an extra twist!
