Ingredients
  • 4 tomatoes, peeled (if desired), seeded and cubed into 1/2" pieces
  • 2-3 cucumbers, peeled, seeded (if cucumber is very large), cubed
  • 1 small red onion, cut into thin slices, separated or 3-4 green/springs onions, chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, peeled and minced (OPTIONAL)
  • a handful each of mint AND flat leaf parsley, chopped finely
  • juice of 1/2 lemon OR red wine vinegar OR pomegranate syrup (unsweetened)
  • 2-4 T. olive oil (IMO the greener, the better)
  • salt to taste

Directions
  1. The ingredients are approximate. I use just slightly more tomatoes than cucumbers and I chop them both to about the same size.
  2. In a large bowl, place all ingredients as you prepare them.
  3. Mix together all ingredients and adjust the tartness and saltiness to your taste.
