This quick and easy Tomato Cucumber Salad is perfect for a barbecue side dish or picnic salad. This time of year it is great for those outdoor gatherings because it is cool and refreshing.
I love to pack this up and take it with us to the beach. I recommend chilling the dressing for at least an hour before serving.

Why This Tomato Cucumber Salad Recipe?
Hello Friends! I hope you are enjoying your week. With the warmer weather, I have been making more salads for a cool lunch idea.
As a child, I remember not really caring for cucumber salads. They were a staple at church gatherings, school functions, and showers, but I didn't really appreciate them until I was grown up and actually liked vegetables!
Fast-forward to now and I really do have a better appreciation for fresh vegetables. This recipe uses bell peppers, but it also works well with mini peppers
