Greetings to hivers and friends of vegan 🌱 community 😍💕.

How are you all doing and managing this hot weather even though we are in spring expecting the rain ☔️. I really do think the global warming is the cause of this weather change. We must keep ourselves in check , eating and drinking to stay refreshed even while we are not yet in summer.

Today’s warm morning made me to start my day with this tomatoes 🍅, cucumber 🥒 sides am sharing with you. The simplest inexpensive summer side I once made sometime during summer, but a side salad 🥗 you can enjoy anytime the weather gets hotter like this season

Making this tomatoes , cucumber side is so easy once they are chopped in our choice of shapes without much work. And also the perfect easy side to pair with just about any dish if you don’t want to enjoy it alone like I did as brunch 🥗.

Why you will love this salad either alone or paired with any meal 🥘 is that it taste good and refreshing with some juice extract from combining the two base ingredients and a mild taste of spice from sprinkles of chili 🌶 powder.

Nothing beats sides like this recipe as the heat keeps building up. And below I will take you through the process with step by step.

INGREDIENTS: ( 2 Servings)

1 large fresh cucumber
2 medium fresh tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1/4 chili pepper powder
2.5 cap of heated veg oil

STEPS FOR PREPARATION:

Step 1.

First thing we will do is to wash and sterilize the cucumber and cherry tomatoes

Step 2.

We sterilize the cucumber 🥒 and tomatoes 🍅. Then leave in a basket to drain

As here above

Step 3,

Next, we take the cucumber 🥒 and slash cut it into two, into rounds, and the sliced rounds chopped into four (4) equal parts.

As here above.

Step 4.

We cut and chop the tomatoes 🍅 thinly above.

Step 5.

To combine, we add the cucumber in a bowl, add the chopped tomatoes,

And add a sprinkle of salt, the chili 🌶 powder, a drizzle of heated up veg oil, and we stir to incorporate all together.

Step 6.

We serve with a plate of our choice and refrigerate for few minutes .

This is a side salad 🥗 that keeps things simple because with cucumber and tomatoes in season, there will never be any complication of any kind with this recipe . Simple and straightforward that you can make it in your own version, adding red onions 🧅 or mint for flavors.. Enjoy 😉.
