Cucumber Tomato and Feta Salad

This post may contain affiliate links, Please see my disclosure policy to learn more.

This cucumber, tomato, and feta salad is so refreshing and easy to make. For the best results, use the freshest and ripest tomatoes and cucumbers you can find. This recipe only takes a few minutes to toss together. Cut your vegetables into similar-sized pieces so that you get a nice variety of veggies and cheese in each bite.

Tomato

Any tomatoes will work in this recipe, but the fresher the better. You can use 2-3 large tomatoes, 5-6 Roma tomatoes, or 1 pound of cherry or grape tomatoes.

Cucumber

You can use regular or English cucumbers in this recipe, peeled or unpeeled, whatever you prefer. If they have big seeds, you can remove them.

Onion

I typically use a sweet onion in this salad, but a red or purple onion does add a nice touch of color.

Cilantro

If you aren’t a cilantro lover, sub with fresh or dried basil or dill instead, to taste.

Feta

This salad is prettier if you sprinkle the feta on top instead of mixing it in with the veggies.

 

This salad tastes better when it’s had a little time to soak in the dressing, but is not as visually appealing after sitting for too long.  For that reason, this salad is best when made right before serving. To make it ahead of time, just cut all of the vegetables and store them separately in the refrigerator. Toss with the dressing when ready to serve.
