Prep the vegetables: Slice cucumber, tomato, and onion. Use firm, ripe tomatoes and English cucumber for the best texture.
Make the dressing: In a bowl or jar, whisk olive oil, red wine vinegar (or lemon juice), oregano, parsley, red pepper flakes, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Combine: Toss the vegetables with the dressing gently to coat evenly.
Marinate: Let sit 20–30 minutes at room temperature or in the fridge for flavors to meld.
Serve: Enjoy chilled or at room temperature as a light, healthy side dish or snack.
