Mediterranean Cucumber-Tomato-Mint Salad | When the cucumbers and tomatoes are in season, I go a little crazy. Can you blame me? We eat 1 of 3 cucumber and/or tomato salads just about every day. Here's one of my favorites! | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

We don’t get enough of cucumber season. So when the cucumbers and tomatoes are in season at the Farmers’ Market or in our garden, I do go a little crazy. Can you blame me?

We eat 1 of 3 cucumber and/or tomato salads just about every day.

I already shared one with you — the cucumber yogurt/kefir salad — and this post includes another. If you’re counting, that means I still have one more to show you. 😉

Mediterranean Cucumber-Tomato-Mint Salad

I add the optional feta whenever I can — my homemade feta is a raw, cultured food, making this a probiotic dish. Using one of the raw vinegars or Kombucha also adds beneficial organisms.

Course Salad, Vegetable
Author Wardee Harmon

Ingredients

  • a couple cucumbers peeled and diced (or not peeled, up to you)
  • a couple vine-ripe tomatoes
  • 1/2 an onion diced
  • feta cheese optional
  • garlic crushed, optional
  • sea salt to taste
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • extra virgin olive oil to taste
  • lemon juice fresh, to taste (or raw apple cider vinegar, coconut vinegar, or Kombucha*)
  • dried mint a few generous pinches (more if fresh)

Instructions

  1. Toss all ingredients together in a salad bowl.
  2. Easy-peasy!
  3. Best eaten when fresh, although this does keep for a day or so in the refrigerator.

Recipe Notes

*I like this apple cider vinegar. Make your own kombucha! Recipe here.

    Wardee!
    I’ve been making this salad all summer!

    I also love to add an avocado, sprouted mung beans, sprouted lentils, sprouted (cooked) black beans, and sunflower seeds. These additions make this a meal! I make up a batch and eat it mostly every day for lunch…it’s so satisfying. Of course, now that I’ve learned how to make sourdough English muffins, I usually have one of those as well. : )

    Thanks for sharing! I can’t wait to see what else you do with cucumbers!

    In terms of salads, I just love anything with tomatoes – good thing my garden is full of them! Your cucumber tomato mint salad sounds lovely and refreshing – I’ll definitely be trying it.
