Raintree Salad

Lisa Beck
Course Salad

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cucumbers, rinsed and stripped
  • 1 red onion
  • 1 green or red bell pepper
  • 3 tomatoes
  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 1/2 cups sliced pitted black olives
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Instructions
 

  • Rinse all vegetables, drain.
  • With a scoring tool, or knife, strip lines into cucumber skin. Slice cukes into circles, about 11a inch thick. Cut red onion into halves, leaving the root end intact. Slice onion halves across, making semi-circles that will separate. Cut top from bell pepper and cut into strips, about as wide as your finger. Cut stems from the tomatoes and cut in half. Slice each half into semi-circles, getting four cuts per tomato half.
  • Place all vegetables into a large bowl and add the crumbled feta and olives. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • In another bowl, combine water and oil ... add to vegetables. Toss well to coat evenly. Chill or serve immediately. Makes 6 servings. Enjoy!
