PIN this Tuna Salad with Cucumbers to try it later!
Tuna Salad with Cucumbers, Tomatoes, Parsley, and Mint is the kind of thing I want for dinner at this time of year! And it’s true that when the end of summer approaches, I have a hard time letting go of summer foods. And I’m not apologizing for it, because salads like this are perfect to make in late summer, when garden tomatoes are at their prime and the herb garden is still loaded with leafy goodness.
This salad was inspired by my favorite Middle Eastern Tomato Salad, something I make every year when I have good tomatoes, fresh cucumbers, and parsley and mint from the garden. This salad with tuna has some of the same flavors, but it features tomatoes and cucumbers cut into bigger chunks, for more of a main-dish salad.
What really makes this salad a winner for me is the generous amount of chopped fresh parsley and mint. I haven’t been to the middle east, but I’ve eaten in enough middle eastern restaurants to know about their salads with fresh herbs, where the herbs are almost eaten as a form of greens. And I absolutely love that combination in this salad! I hope you’ll try the salad if you’re a fan of these ingredients and also like holding on to summer!
