Easy Cucumber and Tomato Salad


We are growing both cucumbers and tomatos in our garden this year, and one of my favorite things to do is to chop them up and throw them together with some balsamic dressing. They look so pretty and taste so good!
I just buy a packet of Good Seasonings Italian Dressing mix, but instead of using what it calls for, I use balsamic vinegar and olive oil and mix it according to the package directions. For a different taste, sometimes I use apple cidar vinegar and canola oil. Both dressings are easy, and fabulous on these veggies! Sometimes I add a little bit more water and a little less oil just to save a few calories. These are two of my favorite dressings!
