We just got back from the beach with John’s family and after all of the amazing seafood we had this is just the thing I need for dinner tonight. The crisp cool cucumbers combined with the bursting tomatoes are just the beginning of this salad. Add in the crunch of the onions, the saltiness of the feta and this tangy vinaigrette and you have one heck of a salad.
This salad is one of those salads you can customize. Not a huge fan of red onions, I understand it took me a while grow to love them. But if you don’t like them, omit them. Want more tomatoes or feta? Add more!
