Fresh Cucumber Tomato Salad

This is a delicious recipe for a fresh side dish! Lots of people who don't have candida make this using white vinegar; candida doesn't allow that so sprinkle on the salt and spices! (Let me tell you, spices and herbs are your best friends when you have candida!).

RECIPE NOTES:
Tomatoes are included in this recipe; these are semi limited.
Fresh herbs are always better than dried for candida; if you use dried, try to make sure it is under 6 months old (less chance of mold)

Ingredients:
Approx. 12 cherry tomatoes
1 large cucumber
1 tsp. fresh or dried oregano
sea salt to taste

Instructions:
Rinse tomatoes and cut into quarters. Peel cucumber; cut in half crosswise and cut each of those halves in half longwise. Remove seeds using an apple corer, spoon, or cut out with a knife. Slice cucumber crosswise and cut slices into bite sized pieces. Toss with tomatoes, oregano and salt. Refrigerate at least half an hour before serving.

I like the look of your tomato salad. Just wanted to mention that fresh spices and herbs are often a safer bet with candida as sometimes the dried herbs and spices have mold in them. Nice blog!

Thanks for that note! I edited the recipe to include that.
