Ingredients
  • 2 medium roma tomatoes, cubed
  • 1-lb. English cucumber, cubed
  • 1/2 medium red onion, cubed, or 4 scallions, finely sliced (I use red onion)
  • 1 bell pepper, cubed

  • 1/2 to 1 cup crumbled or cubed feta cheese
  • Optional additions: 1-15 oz can chickpeas, drained and rinsed, 1/2 cup coarsely chopped olives, 1 to 2 Tbsp finely minced mint or dill. For a thicker, sesame-coated flavor, whisk in a couple tablespoons of tahini.

Directions
  1. Place chopped veggies in a large bowl. Set aside.
  2. Whisk together parsley, lemon juice, olive oil, sumac powder, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
  3. Toss mixture with veggies.
  4. Top with feta.

I like this very much! I am partial to Middle-Eastern dishes. I can find sumac & any other ingredient for mid-east cuisine, in my town. We have many turkish, arab, palestinian & other middle-easterners in our town. Thanks!


I'm saving this one!


Good salad for the warmer months when the garden is producing .Sumac was used by the Romans before lemons were introduced throughout the Mediterranean countries from further east ,and I love the flavour .
