Ingredients

Units Scale

For the salad

  • 1 English cucumber, sliced
  • 1 pint of cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
  • 1/2 red onion thinly sliced (I used a mandoline slicer)

For the dressing

  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 Tbsp water
  • 1 tsp. dried oregano
  • salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Place the sliced cucumbers, tomatoes, and onion into a large bowl. 
  2. To a small bowl, add the dressing ingredients and whisk until everything is well combined.
  3. Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and lightly toss until all the veggies are coated.
  4. Cover with plastic wrap and let chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. But for the best results, I suggest a couple of hours.
  5. Optional: garnish with some chopped fresh parsley and squeeze lemon juice to add a punch of fresh flavor.

Equipment

Notes

Store leftovers for a couple of days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
