Cucumber Salad with feta and mint.

watterstide

1 lb thin skinned, mild (non bitter) cucumbers, such as Persian, Armenian, or Japanese cucumbers, thinly sliced. You might also try it with English cucumbers.
1/4 red onion, thinly sliced and cut into 1-inch long segments
2 or 3 red radishes, thinly sliced (or switch to fresh tomatoes if you don't like radishes)
10 mint leaves, thinly sliced
White vinegar
Olive oil
1/4 pound feta cheese (get the low fat kind)
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Method

In a medium sized bowl, gently toss together the sliced cucumbers, red onion, radishes, mint leaves with a little bit of white vinegar and olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Right before serving, sprinkle on crumbled bits of feta cheese. Serve immediately. Serves 4.

That sounds so delicious! I'm going grocery shopping this afternoon so I'll have to add feta and mint to my list (cucumbers are a favorite so they are always on the list lol). Thanks for sharing!

I make this exact same salad, except I use basil instead of mint. I'll have to try mint next time, that sounds like a nice twist. Oh, and I usually add 1 chopped tomato to it, as well. It adds some nice color.
