Quick Cucumber, Tomato and Feta Salad

Nif's Note:

Use a mix of green and black olives in this perfect lunchtime salad, which also makes a delicious condiment for pita sandwiches. Or spread a whole wheat tortilla with hummus and top with a generous spoonful of salad to make a fresh, crunchy wrap. Enjoy!

Need a salad in a hurry? This one is for you then. It is a colorful salad, that you can put together in minutes. I used lemon this time in making it, but would like to try balsamic vinegar next time. Made for Went To The Market - Summer 2011

Fit for a Queen! Lovely with the feta and the lemon...only used a bit of oil, because the feta, cukes, tomatoes, and lettuce just screamed to be lightly dusted with such things. The freshness just exudes from every pore of the tomato, and you can see the deliciousness of this. Nothing else to add. Just make it. Go do it.
