Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium cucumbers
- 3 medium tomatoes
- 1 small red onion
- 1 medium green bell pepper
- 0.5 cup fresh parsley
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
- 0.5 cup walnuts
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Wash all the vegetables under cold running water and pat them dry with a clean towel.
Cut the cucumbers in half lengthwise, then slice them into thin semi-circles. Place in a large salad bowl.
Core and dice the tomatoes into small cubes. Add them to the bowl with the cucumbers.
Peel and slice the red onion thinly, then add to the salad bowl.
Remove the seeds from the green bell pepper, then chop it into small bite-sized pieces. Mix this into the bowl with the other vegetables.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and cilantro, then sprinkle them over the salad mixture.
Roughly chop the walnuts and add them to the salad for a delightful crunch.
In a small bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper to make the dressing. Whisk the ingredients together until well combined.
Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss everything together to make sure the vegetables and herbs are well coated with the dressing.
Taste the salad and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper according to preference.
Serve immediately for the freshest taste, or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld together.
