Tomato, Cucumber And Basil Salad

I have a lot of roma tomatoes and lemon cucumbers in my garden right now and made this salad for dinner to try to use some of them up. I like the little bit of sweet the sugar gives the dressing.
Ingredients
- 5 roma tomatoes shopping list
- 1 large lemon cucumber or two smaller ones, peeled or not shopping list
- 2 Tbs balsamic vinegar shopping list
- 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil shopping list
- 1/4 tsp sugar shopping list
- 3 tsp chopped fresh basil shopping list
How to make it
- Mix the balsamic vinegar, olive oil and sugar together and put in the refrigerator to chill for about 30 minutes or so. Mine ended up chilling for about an hour.
- Slice the tomatoes and cut the cucumber into bite sized pieces. Add the basil and pour the dressing on. Toss and serve.
- I like the chilled dressing on top of the still-warm-from-the-garden ingredients. I think next time I will put some red onion in this.
