Cucumber Tomato Salad is a refreshing dish made with crisp cucumbers, juicy tomatoes, and a light dressing often featuring olive oil, vinegar, or lemon juice. This versatile salad is commonly associated with Mediterranean cuisine but is enjoyed worldwide for its simplicity and vibrant flavor. Packed with nutrients, cucumbers provide hydration and vitamins like K, while tomatoes are rich in antioxidants like lycopene and vitamin C. When dressed minimally, this salad is low in calories and ideal for heart-healthy diets. Olive oil, frequently used as the dressing base, adds healthy monounsaturated fats, promoting good cholesterol levels. Variations can include onions, fresh herbs, or feta cheese for added texture and flavor. While healthy overall, moderation is key with additions like cheese or heavier dressings that may increase calorie and fat content. Perfect as a side dish or light snack, this salad embodies a balance of nutrition and flavor.
