Tomato-Cucumber Salad image

Great little healthy side salad for a cook-out or picnic. For the oil & vinegar dressing, I used Newman's Own Olive Oil & Vinegar Salad Dressing, which is what they tested with. Very tasty...From Southern Living Magazine, June 2008. Prep time is cook time.

I tried this salad with cherry tomatoes and English cucumbers, and it was delicious! The smaller tomatoes and cucumbers made the salad more bite-sized and easier to eat.

This salad was a bit bland for my taste. I think it would have been better with a more flavorful dressing.
