Classic Italian Tomato and Cucumber Summer Salad

Classic Italian Tomato and Cucumber Summer Salad A classic summer Italian salad that is a staple at the nightly dinner table. This salad tastes better when given time to marinade on the counter allowing the ripe, juicy tomatoes to release their incredible flavour. It is easily transportable and therefore the perfect salad to bring along to a barbecue, picnic or gathering. A true Mediterranean classic and so healthy!  As with all of my recipes and in keeping with Italian way of cooking my measurements are just estimates and my spices are just recommendations. QB or Quanto Basta in my recipes means as much or as little as you would like and need. Cook by eye  👁(ad occhio) and let your taste buds be your guide.  Remember to season as you go along and build the flavours slowly. Taste test frequently to make sure it is to your liking and adjust if needed! Serve with lots of crusty bread so that you can soak up all the juices!!!!
