So good. My friend Katie always adds avocado to this recipe so I did too.

Easy Tomato Cucumber Salad adapted from Eatwell101
5 large tomatoes (tomatoes on the vine are best), quartered
1 English cucumber, peeled and sliced
1-2 avocados, chopped
1/2 large red onion, sliced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 pinch kosher salt + 1 pinch black pepper
For the vinaigrette dressing:
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon kosher salt + 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
1 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon honey (optional)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients for the salad: tomato, cucumber, red onion, parsley, and cilantro. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to combine. To prepare the dressing, throw all of the dressing ingredients (olive oil, vinegar, garlic, salt, pepper, oregano, honey) into a small bowl or a mason jar and whisk together vigorously until well blended. Pour the dressing over the veggies and toss gently. Cover the bowl with plastic and let sit at room temperature until ready to serve, for 1 to 3 hours. This will allow the flavors to meld together. Serve the tomato-cucumber salad when you’re ready, enjoy!
