Excellent recipe! I don't know what I was expecting, because it really is just a basic summer dish recipe. But the simple becomes the apex of tomato and cucumber recipes. I did add a "tad" more garlic, but otherwise followed the recipe. I will have this often during the summer. Thnx for posting, Jenny. Made for Comfort Cafe Summer 2009. -
Very tasty and refreshing on a hot day. My kids really enjoyed it too. Definitely something for summer. :D -
Great, really tasty, quick to put together. I will probably have this again for lunch tomorrow. I put some pepper in mine, because I am a pepper freak

I live in Adelaide South Australia. I work for EDS as a Curriculum Developer. I was born in Holland but am now a 'Dinky Di' Australian. Many of my favourite recipes are from Holland given to me by my Mother. It took me many years to 'educate' my husband, who is English to some of them. I love to experiment with food, picking up many delicious recipes from travelling around the globe (when finances allow). Love family, home, champagne and food.
