Notes
TomatoesUse any tomatoes you like - salad tomatoes, cherry, grape and other assorted sizes and colour OR use all salad tomatoesCan this salad be made in advance?These ingredients contain a lot of water so if the salad is made in advance it will become watery. It'll still be tasty but won't look as fresh and vibrant.Can I use regular salad cucumbers?Yes. However it's best to completely peel salad cucumbers and remove the seeds before using in this salad.
