Cool, crisp, refreshing salad great for lunch, side dish, whatever!
Ingredients
2 cups diced cucumber ( I used one of the long burpless cucumbers - the skin is better)
1 cup diced tomato
1 cup diced onion, red or sweet white - I used a vidalia
3 Tablespoons olive oil
6 Tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
about 3-4 Tablespoons fresh squeezed lime juice - 1 medium sized lime
about 1 teaspoon minced garlic
⅓ cup finely chopped fresh dill or 2-3 Tablespoons dried dill
Salt and Pepper to taste
Crumbled Feta cheese to sprinkle on top
Instructions
Chop vegetables to about ½ inch dice and throw them all into a bowl large enough to stir/toss it around. Mix remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Taste and adjust seasonings as you like. Toss with vegetables
Any of these ingredients can be adjusted to suit individual tastes. It's a good idea to mix the dressing in a small bowl on the side first, so you can adjust quantities of vinegar or other ingredients.
NOTE: Best if servied within 6-8 hours. It is OKAY the next day, but after that, I think the vegetables get too saturated with the vinegar and it gets soggy.
