Ingredients

2 medium cucumbers, seeds removed and diced
2 large Roma tomatoes, diced (or 1 pint grape tomatoes, halved)
1/4 to 1/2 medium red onion, diced or sliced 1/8-inch thick
1 teaspoon fresh dill
2 tablespoons avocado oil or olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
dash pepper to taste
1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
4 ounces feta cheese (optional) crumbled

Instructions

Place the cucumbers, tomatoes, red onion and dill in a large bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper and sugar (if using). Pour the vinaigrette over the cucumber/tomato mixture.
Toss gently to coat. Top with crumbled feta and serve.

Notes

Make ahead. This salad is great to make several hours in advance of serving it because it gets tastier over time. You can also mix the vinaigrette together up to 3 days in advance, and store it in the refrigerator.
Storing leftovers. Store leftover salad in an airtight storage container in the refrigerator for 3-5 days. Before serving again, give it a good stir and taste + season again as needed.
