Tomatoes and Cucumber Salad is a refreshing dish commonly found in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines. It features ripe tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, fresh herbs like parsley or mint, and is often dressed with olive oil, lemon juice, or vinegar for a vibrant, tangy flavor. Some variations may include red onions, feta cheese, or a sprinkle of spices like oregano. Packed with vitamins and minerals, this salad is a nutrient-rich choice, offering a healthy dose of vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants from tomatoes. Cucumbers contribute hydration and fiber, aiding in digestion. Olive oil adds heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while the fresh herbs deliver additional antioxidants. Care should be taken with added cheeses or dressings, as they can increase calorie and sodium content. Simple, nutritious, and versatile, this salad is an excellent addition to a balanced diet.
