Cucumber Tomato Salad with Greek Dressing

Ingredients

• ½ medium red onion, cut into short strips
• 1 English cucumber or 2 Persian cucumbers, thinly sliced into rounds
• 1 pint (2 cups) cherry tomatoes, halved or quartered if large
• ⅓ cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)
• 2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill or additional basil
• ⅓ cup Greek Salad Dressing*

Steps

1. 1

   Place the onion in a small bowl of ice water and let it soak for at least 5 minutes to tame the flavor.

2. 2

   In the meantime, combine the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, optional feta, and herbs in a medium serving bowl. Once the onions are drained, add them to the bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to combine.

3. 3

   For best flavor, let the salad rest for at least 10 minutes before serving. This salad keeps well in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 4 days.
