I have made this salad three times already since I saw it posted at Sjogren’s Style last week. I am a regular reader of her blog because we share the same chonic illness, Sjogren’s Syndrome, and Sjogren’s Style always has accurate and timely information to help cope with the many effects of the disease. This is a recipe that she posted not only because it is tasty, but because of the anti-inflammatory properties of the tomatoes, cucumbers, and onions.
1 English cucumber (or two regular cucumbers)
1/2 red onion
Parsley, cilantro, basil, tarragon, or other herb(s) of your choice
Extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper
Feta
Cut the tomatoes into halves or quarters. Chop the cucumber and red onion and add to the tomatoes. Chop the herb(s) of choice and add to the mixture. I chose to use only cilantro in my salad because it is what I like. Drizzle with about a teaspoon of olive oil, add salt and pepper to taste; mix well. Top the salad with about a tablespoon of feta, or serve the feta on the side.

I can't wait to try this out as I love cucumbers. My hubby grows them at at a friend's garden and we usually get a bumper crop.

I am married to a Greek American. I sometimes wonder how I lived all the years of my life without Greek food such as this very tasty Greek Summer salad. It is great that you are sharing this recipe with your readers.
