Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 large english cucumber (370g) diced
  • 1 lb. cherry tomatoes (445g) multicolored, quartered
  • 1/2 red onion (120g) sliced
  • 1/3 cup cilantro finely chopped
  • 6 oz. feta cheese (170g) fat free or regular, crumbled or cubed

Dressing:

  • 1 Tbsp olive oil (15g)
  • 1 Tbsp white balsamic vinegar (15g) or red wine vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice (15g)
  • 1 Tbsp water (15g)
  • 2 tsp dijon mustard (10g)
  • 1/2 Tbsp za’atar seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper or to taste

Instructions

  • Combine the dressing ingredients in a small bowl.
  • To a large bowl, add the diced cucumber, tomatoes, red onions, cilantro and fat free feta. Toss to combine.
  • Add the dressing just before serving for the most crisp and fresh presentation. Once salt touches cucumbers and tomatoes, they get excrete liquid, making this recipe more juicy. Will store well in the fridge for 2-3 days.

Notes

To make dairy-free/vegan: use dairy-free cheese or omit.

Serving & Storage Suggestions:
  • Add dressing just before serving for most crisp and fresh presentation. Once salt touches cucumbers and tomatoes, they start to excrete liquid.
  • Will store well in the fridge for 2-3 days.
  • If you wish to make this side dish last longer, you can store the dressing separate from the salad and just add it whenever you’re ready to eat to make it last 4-5 days.
