Start by washing the tomatoes, cucumber, and herbs thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or pesticides.

Dice the tomatoes into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Peel the cucumber, slice it in half lengthwise, and remove the seeds with a spoon. Dice the cucumber and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.

Finely slice the red onion and add it to the bowl. The onion adds a sharp flavor that complements the sweetness of the tomatoes.

Tear the basil leaves into smaller pieces and chop the parsley. Add both herbs to the salad mixture for freshness.

In a small bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper.

Whisk the ingredients together until emulsified. This means the oil and vinegar will blend together, creating a smooth dressing.

Pour the vinaigrette over the salad mixture and gently toss everything together until evenly coated. Be careful not to mash the tomatoes.

Taste the salad and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper to your preference.

Transfer the salad to a serving dish and serve immediately for the freshest flavor. Enjoy your vibrant tomato salad!
