Tomato, Cucumber, and Feta Salad

aggies1ut · 07-04-2006, 07:58 PM

I got this recipe from Food Network and made it this weekend. It's awesome. I didn't even mind the tomatoes, which I normally don't like.

2 tomatoes, cored and sliced
1.5 cucumbers, peeled, seeded, and sliced
salt and pepper
2 tbs. red wine vinegar
3 tbs. olive oil
1/2 C. feta cheese, crumbled
**I also added diced red onion**

In a medium bowl combine tomatoes and cucumber. Season with salt and pepper. Add vinegar and olive oil. Toss to coat. Sprinkle on feta and serve.

I believe Greek salad also adds olives but it's essentially the same.

Sounds like the same thing I do to my cottage cheese, except I eat the cucumbers whole.

I have to have red onion on all of my salads and sandwiches! Well except for peanut butter and jelly that would be nasty.

I love to do Cucumbers, tomatoe, and feta - witha splash of balsamic vinegar and shake it all together...

is not a real greek salad unless it has oregeno on it

do you have to peel and seed the cucumber? would all be the same to me and less work
