Fresh Tomato and Cucumber Salad

Fresh Tomato and Cucumber Salad- For Two

1 medium tomato, cut into 6 slices
1/2 cup chopped cucumber
1/4 tsp. salt
1 1/12 tsp. finely chopped fresh basil leaves
1 tsp. grated lemon peel
1 tsp. sugar
1 Tbl. balsamic vinegar

On 2 salad plates, arrange tomato slices in a circle, slightly overlapping. Top with cucumber. Sprinkle salt over these.

In a small bowl, mix basil, lemon peel and sugar; sprinkle over salads. Drizzle with vinegar. Let stand five minutes before serving (it brings out the flavors).
