  • Choose a ripe, juicy red pepper for the salad. The sweetness of the pepper will balance out the tanginess of the lemon dressing.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the cucumber and red pepper into thin slices. This will help them marinate in the dressing more easily.
  • Don't be afraid to add more herbs to the salad. Fresh mint, parsley, or cilantro would all be delicious additions.
  • If you don't have feta cheese on hand, you can substitute another type of cheese, such as goat cheese or mozzarella.
