A friend blessed us with some fresh tomatoes and fresh cucumbers a few days ago. Knowing it was more than we would consume before they went bad, and not wanting them to go to waste, I thought I’d toss together a quick salad of apple, cucumber, and tomatoes. Talk about yum!
Here’s what you’ll need to duplicate my recipe…

You can also add fresh chopped zucchini if you have it. Yum.
My family thoroughly enjoyed the apple, cucumber, and tomato salad.
What is your favorite recipe for fresh from the garden produce?
Never had apples in the salad but my kids love salads so I’ll try this one with them. I’ll bet they will; enjoy it
Looks really tasty and healthy. Got to give it a try soon!
I never though about adding apples. That would give it a nice crunch. Thanks!
