So simple, so good! didn't change a thing about the recipe except to add a few red capsicum peppers as suggested. Will be fixing this often. Thanks for such a refreshing little salad.

Really simple and good. Just don't forget to peel the cucumbers like I did. Also I did use dried parsley, but put it in with the liquids to rehydrate several hours before blending with veggies.

This is not the sort of dish I usually go for, but I absolutely loved it as did my SO. I made it a day in advance and it kept very well in the fridge. I used 4 vine-ripened tomatoes, 2 medium Lebanese cucumbers, 1 red capsicum (pepper), 1 small/med red onion, Danish feta and everything else as listed. Thanks for a fantastic recipe I will make again!

This was really fantastic. Good the night I made it, good at lunch the next day and dinner the next night. I used canned tomatoes, which I highly recommend unless you can get nice juicy ones at the store (I made this in October so that's really not an option this time of year) No mealy Roma's in this dish. I'm looking forward to doing it again!
