Summer brings farm fresh produce and I’m always making salads full of veggies ( take a look at my Caprese Salad with Burrata and Spinach and Strawberry Salad ), but this fresh cucumber salad recipe with tomatoes is one of my favorties. Crisp cucumbers (I prefer English or Persian cucumbers as they have thinner peels which don’t need to be removed) and bright tomatoes are a natural combination, while a generous addition of fresh herbs really brighten this dish. Salty feta and an easy Greek inspired dressing bring the whole thing together. This salad is great as a light lunch, or makes a wonderful side to chicken, pork, seafood or steak. This salad is also perfect for summer bbqs or outdoor parties. (Be sure to take a look at my recipe for Cucumber Gazpacho with Avocado!)
