Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (300g) cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 large (300g) English cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 cup (60g) red onion, thinly sliced
  • 6 oz (170g) feta cheese, cubed
  • 1/4 cup (10g) fresh parsley, chopped
  • 3 tbsp (45ml) extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp (5ml) dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp (1.5g) sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp (1.5g) black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Dice the English cucumber into uniform 1/2 inch cubes. Note: This ensures a consistent crunch in every bite.
  2. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
  3. Thinly slice the red onion into half moons.
  4. Place the cucumber, tomatoes, and onion in a large mixing bowl.
  5. Combine the olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small glass jar.
  6. Shake vigorously for 30 seconds until the mixture is thickened and fully combined. Note: You want it to look creamy, not separated.
  7. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss gently to coat.
  8. Add the cubed feta and chopped parsley.
  9. Fold them in once or twice using a spatula until the ingredients are distributed. Note: Do not over mix or the feta will break.
