This Cucumber Tomato Feta Salad has simple ingredients that are a winning combination – so refreshing and flavorful! We can’t get enough of our garden cucumbers and tomatoes so we have been experimenting with all different flavors and cheeses and this is a new favorite.

The feta cheese gives this salad satisfying Greek Salad flavor and adds the salty notes so you hardly have to add any salt (or you can skip the salt altogether). When you add salt to cucumbers and tomatoes, they start to get juicy and soft so less salt means the salad will stay crisp longer.

There’s a surprising ingredient in the dressing that takes this salad to a whole new level!

    If choosing dill over cilantro, can you substitute dry dill weed? If so, how much for this recipe?

      I imagine that will be fine, just use a bit less of it.

    Awesome, This recipe is absolutely awesome!! I have always loved tomatoes, cucumber and onion salad but the vinegar gets to me sometimes. the feta cheese is the “wow factor.” I did take note of the salt issue on tomatoes and cucumbers. I did not know that. (I love learning new things.) Thank you Natasha
