The Best Salad Ever!!

So this is my first time posting a recipe. I am pretty excited, although it is not my recipe. Michelle made it last night for dinner and it was the best thing I have ever tasted mixing some of my favorite veggies. It is from Rachel Ray and Ace wanted her to make it, but I honestly think I ate more than half and then Michelle even let me take the left overs. It is soooo good. And really healthy!

TOMATO ONION AND CUCUMBER SALAD
5 tomatoes, chopped
1/4 red onion, peeled, diced
1 cucumber, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
1 green bell pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
2 splashes red wine vinegar
Coarse salt and black pepper
*I wonder what it would taste like to add a little avacado or feta to this? Maybe I will try it and let you all know.*

Okay so I made this, it did not last long. It was good the first night, but got progressively more oddly textured. Ace and Mich made it and intead of using EVOO and vinegar, they just used Balsamic Vinaigrette with EVOO already in it. It lasted longer, plus tasted way way better. Make it that way. It tastes so much more amazing.
