    I'm not sure anyone else will like it because you really have to like the sharp bite of the ingredients in the first place...but I thought I'd offer the idea. I take it to work as a snack and it's stays well enough in my lunch box until about 14:00. Just remember to bring some mints to eat after the fact. ^_~

    1 Cup Cherry (or Grape) Tomatoes (Don't halve them, just rinse)
    Fine-Medium Chopped Red Onion (I like 2 TBSP)
    Crumbled Feta (I like about 2 TBSP)
    1/2 TBSP Olive Oil
    Pepper to Taste

    I do this with fresh mozarella or goat cheese all the time. It's basically caprese salad, with a few extra ingredients, and minus the basil. I also add balsamic vinegar to mine.

    I made this for a thanksgiving appetizer and it was super tasty: http://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/whipped-feta-with-cucumbers
    I thought the cucumbers could use a tiny bit of red onion.

    I love this! I grow my own tomatoes, so during the summer this is a go to snack. I add fresh basil as well, and it really amps up the flavor. Try it with fresh basil, you won't be disappointed :)
