Ingredients for Summer Coleslaw:

- 2 tomatoes;
- 2 cucumbers;
- 200 g cabbage;
- 2-3 tbsp. olive oil;
- 20 g scallion;
- 20 g parsley;
- salt and pepper to taste.
How to make a salad with cabbage, cucumber, and tomato:
- Before washing the cabbage, peel the top leaves from it. Then let it dry or pat it with paper towels. Shred cabbage with a mandolin slicer or slice it thinly with a knife. Place it in a deep mixing bowl. Before adding any other ingredient, you can give it a gentle squeeze.

- Cut cleaned cucumbers in half and slice them. Add them to the bowl.

- I cut tomatoes in quarters in relatively thick slices (I like to feel it in the salad alongside crisp cucumber). Add them to sliced cabbage with cucumbers.

- Finely chop green onions with parsley. Place them over other ingredients.

- Season with salt and pepper, and pour olive oil over the salad. Stir all the ingredients together. Oil should completely cover all the ingredients.

- This salad is served immediately. As salt will make veggies release moisture and will make salad soggy. Enjoy your meal!
