directions
- chop up the cucumber and tomato FINELY. It is chopped salad, because it is supposed to be chopped up! i'd say peel the cucumber, but it's not a must. The firmer, tastier the tomato, the better! If using red pepper, chop it up to about the same small size.
- Chop up the red onion very small, maybe even slightly finer than the other vegetables.
- Cut up/dice the parsely to taste - i'd probably use about 4 sprigs of parsely (any type works - italian, curly, etc.).
- the key is the dressing - very simple - simply make a 50/50 olive oil and lemon juice mix, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Mix it all together in a bowl and serve/eat.

So simple, yet so delicious! I'm always making variations on this salad, but for kicks and giggles I followed the recipe to a "t". The only adjustments I made were to use quartered grape tomatoes and parsley flakes instead of fresh (I know, I know) because that's what I had.<br/>There really is something about the flavors of the vegetables mixing with that simple 50/50 dressing of evoo and lemon juice that is just heavenly. I used the juice of 1/2 a lemon and an equivalent amount (2 tbsp) of evoo. Served on a whole wheat pita with hummus, lettuce and falafel-- scrumptious. :)
