Balsamic Cucumber Tomato Salad.

There are few things better than fresh vegetables in the heart of summer.  Whether they are straight from your garden, or the farmer's market, or your generous neighbor, they just can't be beat!

After a weekend of eating summer event food (think: burgers, beers, cheesecurds) I knew I wanted something light for supper and as lunch the next day.  I also wanted to use up the beautiful cherry tomatoes I had on the counter and some of the cucumbers from the neighbor.  Enter Balsamic Cucumber Tomato Salad.

Balsamic Cucumber Tomato Salad
(Recipe by Me)
1 pint cherry tomatoes (quartered)
2 small cucumbers (chopped)
1/2 small onion (thinly sliced)
3 tablespoon Tastefully Simple Balsamic & Basil Dipping Oil
2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Salt/pepper to taste

Toss ingredients together to coat with oil/vinegar and salt/pepper.  Serve as a side or enjoy as a light meal.

I LOVED this.  Even my picky husband ate some and my nearly-two year old picked out the cucumbers and then the tomatoes.  :)
