Cucumber With Feta Cheese Dressing Recipes

CUCUMBER SALAD RECIPE WITH FETA

Steps:

• In a small bowl or measuring cup, stir together balsamic dressing ingredients until salt dissolves.
• Slice cucumbers, bell peppers and onions and place them in a mixing bowl.
• Just before serving, drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with a generous amount of feta cheese. Toss to combine. Sprinkle with more salt to taste if desired.

FETA CUCUMBER SALAD

Steps:

• Cut cucumbers in half lengthwise. Using a spoon, remove seeds and discard. Cut cucumbers into 1/2-in. cubes; place in a bowl. Sprinkle with salt. Stir in onions. Combine the cheese, lemon juice, oil and pepper; add to cucumber mixture and stir gently.

CUCUMBER WITH FETA CHEESE DRESSING

Steps:

• Place a few lettuce leaves (shredded) on each of four side plates.
• Slice the cucumber and onion very, very thinly, and divide the slices between the four plates, arranging them neatly on top of the lettuce.
• Chop the cheese very finely, and mix well with the olive oil, the juice of a lemon, the oregano and some freshly ground black pepper.
• Pour the dressing over the cucumber and onion on each plate, and serve.

CUCUMBER FETA SALAD DRESSING

Steps:

• Chop enough of cucumber to measure 1 cup and in a blender purée with feta, yogurt, and garlic until smooth. Transfer dressing to a bowl and season with pepper and salt. Chill dressing, covered, until cold, about 30 minutes. Dressing may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.

CUCUMBER SALAD WITH BALSAMIC DRESSING AND FETA

Steps:

• I peeled the cukes, but you don't have too. The yellow peel would add a nice splash of color. Slice them thin and put them in a pretty bowl.
• Note: If you don't want a lot of excess liquid, slice your cukes and let them sit overnight in a strainer. Extra liquid, if any, will drain from the them.
• If you got your onions fresh, as I did, you'll need to clean and trim them. Slice them very thin, including the greens. The darker green from the onions looks very pretty against the pale cucumbers. If you don't have any onion greens, 2 tbsp fresh chives will do.
• For the dressing:.
• Combine the vinegar, sugar and water. The meaurements I included here are approximate. You are welcome to make this to taste.
• Pour it over your salad and mix it well.
• Chill it overnight or at least several hours so the vinegar & onion flavors will combine. Stir it a couple of times to make sure the flavors are well incorporated.
• Crumble your feta over the salad before serving or combine it at the beginning to let it's flavors combine as well. The feta I used was what I had on hand so you're welcome to use any you wish.
• I've thought of adding some almonds or walnuts for an extra crunch.
