Cucumber and Tomato Salad

SUBMITTED BY: Tigrgrrl  PHOTO BY: wannabe chefette 

"A refreshing, light salad for any hot, humid summer day! The kidney beans and tofu make it a great main dish for vegetarians, as well. The basil may be substituted with fresh parsley or mint. Be sure to make this salad just before serving."
