Creamy Summer Cucumber, Radish, & Tomato Salad

Summer time is here. We've been enjoying the plentiful summer fruit this year at the Farmer's Market. White nectarines, strawberries, and pluots have been our favorites. Summer brings hot weather, pot lucks, and outdoor dining.

This is a quick and easy summer salad that's perfect for a potluck or picnic.

Creamy Cucumber, Radish, & Tomato Salad

Ingredients:

• 1 English cucumber, seeded and diced
• 1 pint cherry tomatoes, quartered
• 1 bunch radishes, diced
• 1/2 medium red onion, finely diced
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons dill, roughly chopped
• 2 tablespoons chives, chopped
• 4-6 ounces feta, crumbled
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise

Instructions:

1. Prepare all vegetables in place in a large bowl. Start with tomatoes. I cut them in half "south pole to north pole" and the again "across the equator." Seed them as best as possible to reduce water content and let them drain in a colander while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
2. Whisk mayonnaise with lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
3. Add mayonnaise mixture to the vegetable bowl and toss to coat.
4. Add feta and herbs and toss to mix. 
5. Place salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
6. Garnish with plenty of dill and chives.
