Ingredients
-
1/4 cup
best quality feta cheese (I like Pastures of Eden)
-
3 tablespoons
best quality EVOO
-
1 tablespoon
red wine vinegar
-
6
kalamata olives, sliced
-
approx. 3
Persion or other seedless cucumberss, sliced VERY thin
-
2
ripe tomatoes
Directions
-
Add first three ingredients to a bowl and mix together.
-
Add the sliced olives and stir together gently.
-
Slice the cucumbers very thin-- I use a vegetable peeler but a mandolin works almost as well. (You should have about 1 & 1/2 cup sliced cucumbers, packed.)
-
Cut the tomatoes into chunks.
-
Add cucumbers and tomatoes to the feta mixture, stir gently but thoroughly, and let it sit for 15-20 minutes to let the flavors marry.
-
Serve as a salad, side dish or add cooked, drained garbanzo beans or cut-up rotisserie chicken to create a whole meal.
-
Enjoy!
