We’ve been under a heat warning all weekend. Yuck. Time to chill out (if you haven’t already) and this cool cucumber salad is a great way to do it.

Locally, cucumbers are plentiful and cherry tomatoes are perfection right now. Have this salad with some gazpacho and bread, or just by its lonesome and you’ll stay cool until the heat breaks (finally).
