Ingredients
- 2 pints cherry tomatoes, sliced
- 3/4 cup red onion, diced
- 2 Tbsp. white wine vinegar
- 3 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
- 2 Tbsp. fresh basil leaves, chopped
- 2 Tbsp. fresh Italian flat leaf parsley, chopped
- 1 cup French feta cheese, in brine and crumbled (Valbreso® is an excellent brand)
Tip : Place diced onion in a bowl and cover with cool water. Cover and place in refrigerator for a few hours or overnight. When ready to prepare salad remove onion from refrigerator and drain. This will decrease the pungency of the onion.

- Add the onion, vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper, basil and parsley and mix well.
- Dice or crumble the feta into 1/2- to 3/4-inch pieces
