# Ingredients
* 2 tomatoes
* 1 large cucumber
* 1 small red onion
* leftover red quinoa & yellow pepper salad

# Preparation
1. Finely dice tomatoes, cucumber, and onion.
2. Mix in salad bowl with yesterday's leftover salad
3. Serve

# Comments
Typically I'd then add olive oil and lemon to liven it up a bit. Was a bit distracted tonight.
Also salt and pepper to taste.

I like Israeli salad best when kept to a small number of ingredients. That said, I love mixing it up with one, maybe two, extra ingredients occasionally, like the quinoa and peppers tonight. But not all of these at once!

* some sharp vintage cheddar
* spring onions (green onions the Israelis call them. Might be shallots here in the US?)
* an avocado
* any kind of non-hot pepper. I like to choose them for colour and the crispness adds crunch.
* sweet corn
* tinned tuna

Fresh herbs like coriander (cilantro here, I think?), parsley, dill, and chives always work well with it too.

Since first eating it a few years ago, it's easily become my favourite salad and even one of my favourite dishes.

Enjoy!
