Fresh Cuke Tomato Salad
I am a big fan of Dr. Josh Axe — he has good tips and good recipes. Although he does not say he is Gluten Free or Vegan, he posts some wonderful recipes like the Fresh Cuke Tomato Salad I am posting today.
There are LOTS of ways to create some delicious Fresh Salads. Sometimes, it is just as easy as chopping up whatever veggies you have in the fridge and serving. Other times, it is nice to have a recipe to start with … and add your own variations from there.
Simple is the key, which is why I like the Dr. Axe recipe below:

Like I said, SIMPLE!
