Shepherd's Salad

Shepherd's Salad is a light and refreshing salad, for accompanying both meat and fish dishes. In the summer, it could even be good as main course.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2  cups  diced tomato
  • 1  cup  diced green bell pepper
  • 1  cup  diced peeled cucumber
  • 1/2  cup  minced fresh flat leaf parsley
  • 1/3  cup  sliced red onions
  • 1 branch of mint for decoration

Dressing

  • 1/4  cup  fresh lemon juice
  • 1  tablespoon  olive oil
  • 1/4  teaspoon  salt
  • 1/8  teaspoon  pepper


Preparation

Slice the red onions, pour salt over them and squeeze them with your hands, this way, salt will smooth the taste of the onions. Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Chill for 1 hour.

Note: If you like, you can add some grated feta cheese over it. However, not everybody likes the taste with cheese, so when you have guests, bring the cheese separately to the table.
