Salad with cucumbers, tomatoes, and mayonnaise
Description
Minimum effort — excellent result. Choose juicy but firm tomatoes for the salad. Soft tomatoes won't hold their shape well, and during mixing, you risk ending up with a shapeless mass that will spoil the dish's appearance. If you make the mayonnaise yourself, the salad will turn out not only healthier but also tastier. If desired, instead of mayonnaise, you can use sour cream, plain yogurt, or olive oil for dressing. Although this salad is simple, it's suitable not only for everyday meals. You can prepare it for a picnic with barbecued meats or for a festive table by increasing the ingredient quantities. An untouched plate is unlikely to remain on your table—be sure to try it. Ready to serve immediately.
