Sometimes you make a salad for dinner or another meal, but it turns out that after it no one wants to eat anything! Why does this happen? Because these salads can be so hearty and balanced that you don't feel like eating either the first or the second after them. This is exactly the recipe for this salad. Despite the fact that it is prepared from vegetables, but the fish added to the composition gives satiety and an amazing unforgettable taste. It may seem to many that these products are not compatible with each other, but just by combining the incongruous, delicious dishes always come out. It turns out such a salad is not only tasty, but also useful, beautiful, light, and at the same time very rich. It is quickly eaten, replenishing the body with vitamins and various benefits.
In general, if you want to prepare a delicious salad with fish, then it is better to always choose fresh vegetables as auxiliary components. These primarily include tomatoes. The fish always harmonizes well with them. In addition to tomatoes, other vegetables, such as cucumbers, avocados, peppers, and sour apples, go well with fish. It is best to season such salads with light sauces. Discard the purchased mayonnaise, it is heavy in taste and perception, and besides, it is also unhealthy. The best option would be vegetable or olive oil; you can also make a complex component dressing by combining fermented milk products with herbs, or lemon juice with soy sauce.

Step by step preparation of tomato, cucumber and fish salad:
1. Wash the tomatoes and pat dry with a paper towel. Use a sharp knife to cut it into medium pieces. Do not grind the tomatoes too much, otherwise they will let juice and the salad will be too watery.
2. Wash cucumbers, dry with a napkin and cut into slices. I cut them into thin half rings, but you can choose any other cutting method, for example, bars or straws.
3. Peel and finely chop the garlic.
4. Open the canned fish.
5. Put tomatoes, cucumbers, garlic and fish into a large salad bowl, which you have previously smashed into small pieces.

Serve the salad immediately after cooking, because such salads are consumed immediately after preparation. Otherwise, under the influence of salt, they will quickly release juice and become too watery.
