Simple Salad Recipe

This is a salad that I make for my husband quite often.
I, cannot partake, sadly, due to a raw tomato allergy...
bummer, right!?!
Oh well, such is life.

Tomato, Cucumber Italian Salad
1 tub grape tomatoes
1/2 long English cucumber
3 scallions (greens & whites)
2Tbl good balsamic vinegar
2 Tbl good extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp fresh cracked black pepper
1 tbl chopped Italian flat leaf parsley

Cut the tomatoes in half and put in a med. size bowl.
 Cut the cucumber into cubes that are about the same size as the tomatoes.
 Add to the tomatoes.
 Cut up scallions into a fine dice.
 After adding the scallions to the bowl, pour on the vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper and parsley.
 Mix well, and allow to sit for 20 minutes or so, while you fix the rest of your dinner! Mix again just before serving!
Have a great day everyone!
