Ingredients

  • 500 g tomatoes 1.1 lb, truss or sub with cherry
  • 250 g cucumber 8.8 oz, Lebanese
  • ½ red onion
  • 200 g feta cheese 7 oz, crumbly style - Aussie or Greek feta
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Finely dice the 500 g tomatoes, 250 g cucumber and ½ red onion.
  • Place chopped veggies into a large bowl and crumble the 200 g feta cheese over the top.
  • Give a good crack of Salt and pepper, then toss well and serve straight away or pop in the fridge to self sauce further and serve the next day.

Notes

  • Size Matters - The smaller you chop the veggies, the more surface area you'll get coming into contact with the salt. More surface = a saucier salad!
  • Additions - If you want to make it go even further, try adding a chopped avocado, olives and chopped parsley or oregano.
  • Add Protein - A can of mixed beans or even roto chicken would work well tossed through the salad.
