Amazing Cucumber Basil Salad

Description

I created this salad because I had lots of fresh veggies and herbs from my garden that needed using up. It is so good, and because it makes its own dressing, it’s very healthy as well. The flavor is best when left in the fridge overnight.

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
  • 1 pound campari tomatoes, seeded and minced
  • 2 large seedless cucumbers, peeled and minced
  • 1 large red onion, minced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon cracked black pepper, or to taste

Instructions

  1. Run spinach and basil through a food processor until finely chopped.
  2. Mix spinach mixture
  3. tomatoes
  4. cucumbers
  5. red onion
  6. garlic
  7. salt
  8. and pepper together in a large bowl with an air-tight lid. Cover bowl and refrigerate salad
