Tomato, Cucumber & feta salad
Ingredients:
- 6 small Persian cucumbers or 1 English cucumber
- 4 pints grape or small cherry tomatoes, red or mixed colors
- 1/4 cup good white wine vinegar
- 6 tablespoons good olive oil
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
- 1 1/2 pounds feta cheese
A few notes on making this:
- I love this for a fresh summertime salad—it travels well and works great at room temperature. Take it to a backyard party or the beach!
- This is a perfect salad to make when tomatoes are in peak season.
Directions:
- Cut the tomatoes in half lengthwise and place them in a large bowl.
- Halve cucumber(s) lengthwise, then slice into 1/4 in pieces and add to tomatoes.
- Add the vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper, basil, and parsley and toss well.
- Dice the feta in 1/2- to 3/4-inch cubes, crumbling it as little as possible and fold it into the salad.
- Serve at room temperature.
