Delicious combination of veggies and feta with an Italian dressing! Great for a summer side dish on those hot, humid days!

Provided by Severslady

Categories     Vegetable

Time 2h15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 medium cucumbers, peeled and chopped
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 small red onion, chopped
1 (5/8 ounce) package Good Seasonings Italian salad dressing mix, prepared per package directions
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
3 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Combine cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, garlic and feta in a large plastic bowl with a lid. Prepare Italian dressing per package directions. Pour dressing over into bowl and stir to coat evenly. Salt and pepper to taste. Cover bowl with lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving, as salad is best when served cold. Enjoy! Variations of this salad are easily made by changing the type of cheese you use. I have also used crumbled Gorgonzola (when served with steak), shredded sharp cheddar (when served with burgers and hot dogs), and chopped fresh mozzarella (when served with lasagna), depending on the dinner I was serving with the salad.

Nutrition Facts :

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes. The quality of the tomatoes will greatly impact the flavor of the salad, so be sure to choose ripe, juicy tomatoes that are in season.
  • Use fresh basil. Fresh basil has a much more intense flavor than dried basil, so be sure to use fresh basil if you can. If you don't have fresh basil, you can substitute dried basil, but use only half the amount.
  • Don't overdress the salad. A little bit of dressing goes a long way, so be careful not to overdo it. You can always add more dressing if needed, but it's hard to take it out once it's been added.
  • Serve the salad immediately. This salad is best served fresh, so make it just before you're ready to eat it. The tomatoes will start to wilt if they sit in the dressing for too long.

Conclusion:

This tomato basil cucumber salad with feta cheese is a refreshing and flavorful salad that is perfect for a summer picnic or potluck. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a light and healthy salad, give this one a try!
