Ingredients (use vegan versions):

  • 2 tomatoes chopped
  • 1 cucumber, peeled and chopped
  • 1/2 onion chopped very fine or several scallions
  • 2 teaspoon cumin
  • dash of coriander and some cayenne
  • 1-2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vinegar and salt

Directions:

Toss all of the ingredients together in a large bowl. I add about a
tablespoon of water and “toss” with my hand. (don’t ask me why it
seems to taste better!) This salad is especially tasty if it sits a
bit… Serve at room temp with vegan pita bread and something else yummy
like the soup above or falafil.
