Steps:
- 1. Add all ingredients except for dry seasonings to cruet. Exception: If using a bowl instead of a cruet, add oil last while whisking to emulsify. 2. Add dry ingredients to cruet. You don't have to follow my exact measurements. You can shake-in each seasoning to your liking, using the above measurements as a guide. 3. Shake cruet to blend all ingredients or whisk all together in bowl. 4. Stays for several days in refrigerator, in cruet. Note: Remove from refrigerator in advance of using to bring oil back to room temperature fluidity. Shake well or stir well before each use. *Salad is 2 cucumbers, seeded, with black olives added (optional) and this dressing. Tastes better if allowed to marinate in fridge for a few hours before serving.*

CUCUMBER, TOMATO AND PASTA SALAD
I make this recipe mostly in late Spring and especially during the Summer months using cucumbers and cherry tomatoes, fresh from my own garden. I usually make enough for at least two or three servings so I'll have something for a quick, easy brown-bag lunch or perhaps a light dinner. This recipe is easy on the budget, relatively healthy, and is a great side dish. I'll sometimes have a small bowl of this salad with a toasted slice of baguette bread, lightly brushed with extra virgin olive oil and rubbed with a fresh garlic clove and a sprinkling of oregano, and a glass of my favorite wine. Bon Appetit!!

Steps:
- Cook rotini as directed on package to al dante; Drain and run pasta under cold water.
- Drizzle italian dressing over pasta, mixing slowly so as not to break apart the pasta pieces. Add in tomatoes, black olives, cucumber, and 5 tablespoons of the feta cheese. Continue mixing ingredients until well-coated.
- Sprinkle remaining feta cheese over pasta mixture and top with almonds. (Instead of almonds I've used Melissa's Salad Sprinkles. This could not be located in RecipeZaar as a recognized ingredient but I wanted to record it in the directions as another option for a salad topper.).
- NOTE: If you don't care for feta cheese, try using Parmesan cheese instead. It tastes just as good and gives the salad a somewhat different flavor. Use only four to five tablespoons instead and mix in as given above.

Tips:
- Choose the freshest vegetables: Look for cucumbers and tomatoes that are firm and brightly colored. Avoid any vegetables that are bruised or have soft spots.
- Chill the vegetables before serving: This will help them stay crisp and refreshing.
- Use a variety of herbs and spices: Italian dressing is a great way to experiment with different flavors. Some popular herbs and spices to use include basil, oregano, garlic, and pepper.
- Make your own dressing: Homemade Italian dressing is easy to make and tastes much better than store-bought dressing. You can find a recipe for Italian dressing in the article.
- Serve immediately: Italian dressing salad is best served immediately after it is made. The vegetables will start to wilt if they sit in the dressing for too long.
Conclusion:
Cucumber tomato salad is a refreshing and delicious salad that is perfect for a summer meal. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. With its simple ingredients and flavorful dressing, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
