Summer Light Salad
Description
A simple dish to prepare. If desired, you can add white or red onion, minced garlic, hot red pepper (fresh, dried, ground, or in flakes), and ground black pepper to this salad. You can serve this salad without vegetable oil, as it releases plenty of juice, which is the most delicious part. Serve chilled.
