Farmer's Market Tomato, Cucumber, Avocado & Feta Salad

Every week, Zach, Daisy and I go to the Culver City Farmer’s Market. In the summer, we collect the freshest tomatoes, avocados, cucumbers and herbs, and combine them with a simple oil and vinegar dressing and farm fresh feta from the same market for a delicious, crowd stopping salad that is nearly effortless to make.

ingredients

4 pints grape tomatoes, red or mixed colors
1 1/2 cups small-diced red onion (2 onions)
3 small firm cucumbers
2 ripe, but still relatively firm Haas avocados, cut in a large dice
1/4 cup good white wine vinegar
6 tablespoons good olive oil
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
1/8 cup chopped fresh oregano leaves
1 1/2 pounds feta cheese

Cut the tomatoes in half and place them in a large bowl. Thinly slice the cucumber and add it in along with the onion, vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper, basil, and oregano and toss well. Dice the feta in 1/2 to 3/4-inch cubes, crumbling it as little as possible. Gently fold it into the salad with diced avocado and serve at room temperature.
