Notes
- Leftover tomato and cucumber salad can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- I don't recommend making this Mediterranean tomato and cucumber salad more than an hour in advance. Juices seep out of the tomatoes and cucumbers as they sit, watering down the flavors and making the herbs soggy.
