Simple, crisp and one of my all time favorites. You will need three medium or two large tomatos, Two medium cucumbers, 1/2 onion, 1/4 cup vinegar (your choice), 1/2 tsp salt and 2 tblsp sugar.
Peel and dice cucumbers. Dice the tomatos to a similar size. Dice the onion as small as possible. Put all of your dices in a bowl. Sprinkle in the salt and sugar, add the vinegar. Stir the salad and refrigerate for an hour. Check the seasoning though. If it is too sweet, add a sprinkle of salt, stir and recheck. Do the opposite if it's a bit too salty.
This is an easy no brainer salad that is light and refreshing. With it's high acid content it is great with rich (aka fatty foods) like BBQ and anything fried. If you want a twist add some time or terragon (avoid dill as it is cliche though).
By the way this is also a quick refrigerator pickle.
