Cherry Tomato Salad

Plan Z Phase: This is a Z2 (ZReduction) recipe. Who knew water could make a dressing! I was in an Italian restaurant the other night and wanted to order a salad to go with my grilled meat. On the appetizer menu was a salad I could have them adapt for me by leaving out the oil. It tasted GREAT so I came home and made more for a different meal.

This is a pretty side dish as well.

Servings: Serves 3

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of cherry tomatoes cut in half
• 1 cup of cucumber. I use English cucumber and peel it before I cut it up.
• 1 cup of red onion slices
• juice of ½ of a lemon
• sea salt and pepper to taste

Ingredients:

Cut toss the veggies in a bowl. Squeeze on the lemon. Put in enough water to come up about ½ way on the veggies. Grate on sea salt and pepper. Serve.

This can also be stored in the refrigerator for a while to meld the flavors. Then the flavor of the onion and lemon will stand out more in the watery “dressing.”

Enjoy!

Cheers,
