Cucumber Tomato Salad image

I make this salad all the time. It is very healthy and so refreshing. It goes well with so many dishes. Have this salad with some grilled chicken and some fresh crusty French bread and you have the perfect Summer lunch. Adjust the amounts to suit your tastes and enjoy :)
