AMAZING CUCUMBER BASIL SALAD

Amazing Cucumber Basil Salad image

I created this salad because I had lots of fresh veggies and herbs from my garden that needed using up. It is so good, and because it makes its own dressing, it's very healthy as well. The flavor is best when left in the fridge overnight.
