Ingredients:
-1/2 red onion
-1 seedless cucumber
-12 ounces cherry or grape tomatoes (preferably on the vine)
-1/2 lemon, juiced
-12 leaves fresh basil
-5 sprigs fresh thyme
-1/2 tablespoon red wine vinegar
-1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
-1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
-1 teaspoon dijon mustard
-salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
-Cut the tomatoes in half, using a serrated knife.
-Using a sharp knife, remove the ends of the cucumber. Cut the cucumber into medium sized discs, and then cut each dish into quarters.
-Remove the outer layer of the red onion and remove the core. Then slice the onion as thinly as possible.
-Roll the basil leaves tightly, above 4-5 leaves at a time. Use the sharp knife to slice into thin strips.
-Remove the thyme leaves using your fingertips and then mince them very fine with a knife.
-Combine the lemon juice, red wine vinegar, olive oil, dijon mustard, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes into a small bowl. Whisk vigorously for several minutes until the vinaigrette has thickened.
-Add the thyme leaves to the vinaigrette and give another quick whisk.
-Combine the cucumber, tomato, and onion into a large bowl. Add in the fresh basil. Pour over a majority of the vinaigrette and carefully stir until well combined. Taste for seasoning, and add more salt and pepper and more of the vinaigrette, if desired.
-Either cool in the fridge, if desired, or serve right away and enjoy!

I'm bored. I am so tired of the same ol same ol garden salad. So, I searched and I landed on this one and it is like a breath of fresh spring air, a ray of sunshine with birds chirping and butterflies all around. I may never go back. I'm in love.
