Recipe by Dragon
This is the salad I served with my Grilled Steak with Mushroom Tarragon Sauce. I used a little dill and basil in this simple salad. It turned out so fresh and lovely that I think I'll be making it again and again. Sometimes, simplicity is best. I hope you enjoy it.Serves: 2
Ingredients:
1/2 english cucumber, peel on and cut into small cubes
1 1/2 cups cherry or grape tomatoes, cut in half
1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh dill, chopped
juice of half a lemon
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Combine cucumber, tomato and herbs in a bowl.
2. Dress the salad with the lemon juice and olive oil to just coat the tomatoes and cumbers.
3. Season the salad with salt and pepper to taste.

So this was the refreshing bite of that treat? Great for balance!
I agree!
Especially with the mushroom sauce (which sounded amazing, by the way).
This is a great, light salad, Dragon. I'm trying it out today once I get me my vegumtables :)
Simple, delicious and very beautiful!
This is the perfect summer salad! Looks so nice!
Do you know I'm going to get the steak tonight! Love this too, perfect match.
You are quite right...simplicity is the best!
There is something weird going on...I just made a cucumber tomato salad! With dill.
This is eery. And delicious.
I think I've never used dill in a tomato salad. I'll try it, especially as tomato/cucumber salad is practically the basis of all my summer meals.
So simple, yet look so refreshing :)
