White vinegar (I often use white balsamic or white wine vinegar)<\/p>\n
Put the sliced cucumber, tomato, onion and feta (as much or as little feta as you like) into a bowl (preferably with a lid, or use a large tupperware container).\u00a0 Drizzle a generous amount of olive oil, about a \u00bc cup and a good few Tablespoons of vinegar over the veggies.\u00a0 Season with salt and pepper.\u00a0 Put the lid on the bowl and shake until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.\u00a0 Adjust seasoning to taste.\u00a0 Serve as a side dish; with crusty bread and a salad for a light lunch or dinner; or use as a salad topper.\u00a0 It\u2019s delicious!!!\u00a0 I make it weekly.\u00a0 It\u2019s also good the next day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
