4 or 5 tomatoes chopped in 1/2 inch chunks (roma are great!)
2/3 or more long cucumber chopped in 1/2 inch chunks
1 red onion sliced into rings or diced
1 green pepper diced 1/2 inch pieces
Black olives, pitted, big Greek ones from a deli, if you can get them
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/2 cup virgin olive oil
2/3 cup red wine vinegar (or use balsamic vinegar)
Oregano & basil leaves
Leave the skin on the cucumber; dice the
vegetables,
you want them in large bite sized pieces.
Take feta cheese out of it's brine, rinse and them crumble.
Combine olive oil with vinegar and a pinch of oregano and basil.
Mix everything together and chill. This can be made ahead.
This is very similar to the salad that is available in our local Deli and
to
those that are sold in many restaurants. Delicious!
This is easy to increase and great for a buffet meal.
Leave out the olives if you
don't like them.
