4 medium tomatoes or 1 pint of cherry tomatoes
1 english or hothouse cucumber
2 TBS fresh parsley chopped
2 TBS fresh mint chopped
juice of 1/4 lemon
2 - 3 TBS of extra virgin olive oil
sea salt & black pepper to taste
optional: a handful of chopped watercress, capers, a dollop of homemade yogurt cheese or a sprinkle of feta
can use a flavorful vinegar instead of lemon juice
Preparation
Roughly chop larger tomatoes or halve cherry tomatoes. Dice cucumber into 1/2 inch pieces. Chop herbs and mix with the veggies. Add lemon juice, oil and seasonings and mix well. When plated, sprinkle on feta or add a dollop of yogurt cheese if desired. Can hold up if made several hours in advance and also an excellent picnic salad.
