Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Start with the vegetables that hold their shape and color best. Add peppers and cucumber to a large bowl.
  2. Fold in the tomatoes gently so they stay juicy but intact.
  3. Sprinkle in the red onion, spreading it evenly instead of clumping.
  4. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice.
  5. Season with salt and pepper, then toss lightly using your hands or two spoons.
  6. Finish with dill and give the salad one final, gentle mix.

Tips

  • Cut everything to a similar size so the colors read clearly on the plate.
  • Chill for 10 minutes if you want sharper flavor and firmer texture.
  • Taste again before serving — cold vegetables often need a final pinch of salt.
