Refreshing salad with tomatoes and cucumber

21 juin

During warm days, salad is the best dish to eat! It is refreshing, colourful, and good for your weight! You can eat it as a starter or to accompany barbecues. You can also easily eat it at work during lunchtime (it’s much better than a sandwich!). Here is my refreshing salad recipe, involving tomatoes, cucumber and corn.

Preparation time: 5 minutes

Difficulty: Very Easy

Ingredients (for 1 person):

- 1 tomato

- ¼ cucumber

- 1 handful of corn

- 1 handful of mixed leaves

- 1 slice of cooked ham

- 1 teaspoon of balsamic vinegar

- 1 teaspoon of olive oil

- A pinch of salt, pepper and aromatic herbs

Cut into dices the tomato, the cucumber and the ham. Put the leaves into a plate and add all the ingredients. Season with the balsamic vinegar, olive oil and the herbs.
