Ingredients

  • 200 grams cherry tomatoes (or grape tomatoes (approx. 2 cups))
  • 3 to 5 cucumber (see notes)
  • 1 small red onion (diced)
  • 1 sprig fresh mint leaves (chopped)
  • 2 sprig fresh parsley (chopped)
  • 100 grams feta cheese (crumbled)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (extra virgin)
  • 1 tbsp white vinegar (see notes)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prep the Veggies: Wash the veggies thoroughly under running water and wipe out excess water. Cut the grape or cherry tomatoes into halves. Dice the cucumbers into bite-sized pieces and the red onions into fine dice. Chop the fresh herbs finely. Add them to a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Dress and Season it up:: Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil, white vinegar, a pinch of salt and a dash of pepper. Remember, feta can be salty, so go easy on the salt at first.

  3. 3

    Toss and Taste:: Gently toss all the ingredients together. Take a quick taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.

  4. 4

    Crumble the Feta:: Gently crumble the feta cheese over the veggies. You can adjust the amount according to your taste. Don't over-mix after adding feta.

  5. 5

    Serve immediately and refrigerate any leftovers cling-wrapped for not more than 3 to 5 days.
