Yield

Ingredients

¼ cup white wine vinegar
½ cup apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons honey
1.5 teaspoons salt separated
½ medium purple onion thinly sliced
4-6 English cucumbers sliced (roughly 4 cups)
3 cups cherry tomatoes halved
¼ cup fresh basil leaves ripped
¼ cup fresh mint leaves ripped
2 tablespoons fresh dill roughly chopped
¼ cup feta cheese crumbles

Instructions

Add the white wine vinegar, apple cider vinegar, honey, and ¼ teaspoon salt to a mason jar and cover. Shake the jar until all the ingredients are combined and the honey is no longer stuck to the bottom of the jar.
Next, add the sliced onion to a bowl and pour the vinegar mixture over the onions and mix. Set the onions aside.
Add the cucumbers and cherry tomatoes to a colander and sprinkle with ½ teaspoon salt and toss the ingredients together. Set the colander on a mixing bowl to catch the liquid that is drawn out of the tomatoes and cucumber. Let the vegetables sit for about 15 minutes.
Discard the excess liquid from the tomatoes and cucumbers and add them to a salad bowl. Add the onions and vinegar to the tomatoes and cucumbers and mix.
Add the basil, mint, and fresh dill and toss to combine.
Top the salad with feta cheese and serve.

Tips & Notes

You can use regular cucumbers for this recipe, as well. We recommend that you slice them into half moons.
You can swap out any of the vinegars used with red wine vinegar, rice vinegar, etc.
