1
Prepare the Tomatoes
Wash the tomatoes thoroughly under running water. Remove the stems, and chop them into bite-sized pieces.
2
Prepare the Cucumbers
Wash the cucumber and peel it if desired. Cut the cucumber lengthwise, remove the seeds if necessary, and then chop it into half-moon slices.
3
Prepare the Onion
Peel the red onion and slice it thinly. You can soak the slices in cold water for a few minutes to reduce the sharpness if desired.

4
Make the Dressing
In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is well combined.

5
Combine Salad Ingredients
In a large salad bowl, add the chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, and sliced red onion.
6
Add Dressing
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the bowl. Toss gently to ensure all the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.

7
Serve the Salad
Serve immediately for the best flavor, or let it sit for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
