Cube the feta cheese into 1/2″ pieces and gently fold into the salad. Definitely, don’t use crumbled feta. The feta should stay firm for that delicious salty bite.

Just look at the beautiful color of the grape tomatoes, cucumber, feta, and herbs. You can also use cherry tomatoes, either is fine.

I used baby cucumbers, use whichever type you prefer. I happen to love baby cucumbers. They are the perfect size with fewer seeds and no peeling necessary.

Red onions or scallions can be used in place of shallots. We just prefer the subtle flavor of shallots in this dish. Red onions can be overpowering for my family.

Tomatoes don’t fare well after being dressed with oil and vinegar, so this dish will not be as good leftover. But the recipe can easily be cut in half.
