Instructions
- In a serving dish, toss together the cucumber, tomatoes, red onion (0ptional), and feta.
- In a small bowl or glass measuring cup, whisk together the oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss. Sprinkle the basil over the top and gently stir in. Taste and season with more salt or pepper, if needed.
- Eat right away or store in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Beware that the red onion flavor will get very strong after a few hours, so we suggest leaving out the red onion if you want to store it overnight.
Notes/Tips
Tip: If you want to eat this the next day, we suggest leaving the red onion out. It becomes too strong after sitting for a while.
