Cucumber, Feta and Tomato Salad

There’s nothing more refreshing and delicious on a hot summer day than a cool, healthy salad. This cucumber salad is simple to assemble and makes a wonderful appetizer or side salad at dinner.

I love the distinctive taste of feta cheese, combined with the unique flavor of dill. The olive oil and lemon juice adds a lovely dimension to the crisp, coolness of the cucumber. Use grape or cherry tomatoes to offer pretty color. I used Spanish green olives, simple because I didn’t have any Kalamata olives on hand. They brought a touch of saltiness that made this salad even better.
