#### How to Make It
1. **Prep Your Veggies**: Start by washing and slicing your tomatoes and cucumbers into bite-sized pieces. Thinly slice the onions to avoid overpowering the salad.
2. **Mix the Dressing**: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, vinegar or lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Adjust the seasoning to your taste.
3. **Combine and Toss**: Gently toss the vegetables with the dressing until evenly coated.
4. **Add Fresh Herbs**: For an extra burst of flavor, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley or basil on top.
#### Tips and Variations
* For a creamier twist, add a spoonful of yogurt or crumbled feta cheese.
* Spice it up with a pinch of chili flakes or freshly ground black pepper.
* Let the salad chill in the fridge for 15-20 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
