Many a tomato cucumber salad has been carried to the church potluck. The Nashville Food Project inspired this recipe, as it serves a similar and more modern version of the classic salad at the Trinity United Methodist community meal.
Bowls of this dish hit the tables first, before the meal officially began, so before we had even finished plating platters of the main course, guests were already coming to the kitchen with empty bowls, asking for seconds. The many colors, variety of textures, and earthy yet bright tahini dressing make it an easy stunner.
