Chop the cucumbers, tomato, and onion into bite-sized pieces. Toss them into a bowl along with some fresh mint leaves. Squeeze in the juice of a lemon, then sprinkle in salt and pepper to taste. Give everything a good mix so all the flavors come together. Let it sit for a few minutes if you can—that way, the lemon and mint really soak in. Give it one last stir before serving, and enjoy!
