Dave's Tomato and Cucumber Salad created by lazyme

A nice variation of the classic Tomato and Cucumber Salad. This one adds a bit of cumin for an interesting flavor touch. You can also substitute balsamic vinegar for the white vinegar for a nice variation. (The total amount of diced tomatoes should be around 4 cups - it wouldn't fit in the ingredients line).
