Ingredients

Salad:

1 English cucumber (3-4 cups), sliced
10 oz. cherry tomatoes
1 cup sliced red onion
8 oz. feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup cilantro or Italian flat-leaf parsley, shopped.

Vinaigrette:

3 tbsps. extra virgin olive oil
3 tbsps. fresh lemon juice (1 large lemon or 2 small lemons)
1 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp coarse salt

Instructions

Slice the English cucumber into coins and place into a large serving bowl. Add cherry tomatoes.
Slice onion into moon shaped pieces and add to bowl along with the crumbled feta cheese. Add cilantro.
In a small bowl, whisk together vinaigrette ingredients or add them to a mason jar and shake until fully combined.
Drizzle the vinaigrette over the cucumber mixture and gently toss until the vinaigrette has coated the salad.
The salad can be served immediately or placed in the refrigerator to chill for 2-3 hours. This can also be made the day before and kept in the refrigerator, but add cilantro right before serving so it's bright green.
