Cucumber Tomato Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    5 plum tomatoes
    1 large cucumber
    1 large bell pepper
    1 (8 ounce) package Good Seasonings Italian salad dressing mix
    oil
    vinegar
    water, needed
Preparation
    Cut tomatoes into wedges.
    Cut cucumber into slices and then cut circle shaped slices into fourths. I personally like to use one of those crinkle cutters because the dressing soaks up in them better.
    Cut up the bell peppers into strips. I usually buy the yellow or orange peppers because they add color to the salad.
    Follow directions from the box of Good Seasons salad dressing. I usually use 1 1/2 pks of the seasoning mix to make it stronger. This is usually sold as a kit that comes with a cruet. This can be substituted with any other italian dressing, but I personally got most compliments with the Good Seasons --
    Pour dressing into container of veggies and cover with top. I usually like to turn the container upside down while I'm cleaning up so the dressing has alittle time to soak into the veggies better.
    Put into fridge and let it chill overnight. For presentation reasons, mix up veggies to distribute colors.
    Enjoy!
