Tomato, Orange and Cucumber Salad
A fresh salad of grape tomatoes, cucumber, and navel orange is not only full of flavor and nutrition, it's a colorful addition to any dinner table.
Servings: 2 to 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 pints grape or cherry tomatoes halved
- 1 navel orange peeled and cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 English cucumber peeled and cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 tablespoon red onion diced
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro chopped
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon-style mustard
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large bowl combine the tomatoes, orange, cucumber, red onion and cilantro.
- In a separate dish, whisk together the oil, vinegar and mustard. Pour over the tomato mixture, season with salt and pepper, then toss.
- Allow to stand a few minutes, toss again, taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
- The tomatoes may give off some liquid as they sit, so either drain before serving or serve with a slotted spoon.
Notes
For a variation, try using fresh mango in place of the orange.
