Start by trimming the ends of your English cucumber, then halve it lengthwise. Slice the cucumber into ¼-inch thick half rounds.

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the prepared cucumber slices, halved grape tomatoes, and thinly sliced red onion. Gently toss to mix.

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, honey, kosher salt, and black pepper until well blended.

Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and gently toss to coat.

If desired, stir in freshly chopped herbs like parsley, dill, or basil.

For best flavor, let the salad chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving.
