Ingredients:

  • 2 English cucumbers, diced (approx. 1 lb / 450g)
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved (approx. 10 oz / 280g)
  • 1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced (approx. 3 oz / 85g)
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (15g)
  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Dice the cucumbers into 1/2-inch cubes. Halve the cherry tomatoes and slice the red onion into paper-thin half-moons.
  2. Combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and whisk vigorously until the mixture looks unified and slightly thickened.
  3. Add the cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions to a large mixing bowl. Pour the dressing over the top and toss gently with a spoon until every piece is glistening.
  4. Fold in the fresh parsley last to keep the leaves from bruising.
  5. Let the salad sit for 5 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
