Equipment
- One large mixing bowl.
- A sharp chef’s knife.
- A sturdy cutting board.
- Measuring spoons and cups
- A large spoon for tossing.
Ingredients
- 4 cups of cherry tomatoes halved.
- 6 ounces of good feta cheese crumbled.
- 1/2 cup of red onion small diced.
- 1/4 cup of fresh parsley chopped.
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
- 1 tablespoon of red wine vinegar.
- 1 teaspoon of kosher salt.
- 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
Instructions
- Wash your tomatoes well. Cut each cherry tomato in half. Dice the red onion into small bits.
- Grab your large bowl. Whisk the olive oil and vinegar together. Add the salt and pepper.
- Add the tomatoes to the bowl. Toss in the red onions. Mix them gently with the dressing.
- Fold in the crumbled feta cheese. Add the fresh parsley last. Stir very gently so cheese stays chunky.
- Let the salad sit for 15 minutes. This helps the flavors blend well. Serve at room temperature.
Notes
- Use very ripe tomatoes for the best sweetness.
- Buy a block of feta cheese, not pre-crumbled.
- Real olive oil makes a big difference here.
- Do not over-mix the salad.
- You want the cheese to stay in nice bits.
- Add some fresh basil for extra flavor.
