Bursting with fresh vegetables and dressed with a simple vinaigrette this combination of crisp cucumbers and juicy tomatoes is light and refreshing while the addition of feta brings a hit of saltiness.

Summer brings farm fresh produce and I’m always making salads (Caprese Salad with Burrata and Pea Salad with Mint and Feta are a few of my faves). Crisp cucumbers ( I prefer English or Persian cucumbers due as they have thinner skins and don’t need to be peeled) and bright tomatoes are a natural combination, while a generous addition of fresh herbs makes this salad extra bright. 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, seafood or steak. This salad is also perfect for summer cookouts or outdoor parties. (Be sure to take a look at my recipe for Cucumber Gazpacho with Avocado!)
