Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 cucumber -- peeled, seeded, and chopped
2 tomatoes -- chopped
1/3 cup minced red onion
1/3 cup zesty Italian salad dressing
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon pepper

Combine all ingredients in medium bowl and mix gently. Cover and chill 1-2
hours to blend flavors. Serve with chips for dipping, or as a condiment
with grilled fish or chicken.

2 2/3 cups (8 one-third cup servings)

For a taste of the Greek Islands, this simple and fresh salsa goes
together in minutes. Serve it with grilled fish or chicken.

ChupaNote: to avoid bottled salad dressings, mix 2 tablespoons freshly
squeezed lemon juice, 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed orange juice, 2
tablespoons extra virgin olive oil and 1 1/2 teaspoons Greek seasoning, to
replace the zesty Italian salad dressing. Use English or Persian cucumbers
(thin skin) and leave the skin on. I prefer the Roma tomatoes (use 4
large). To stretch the salsa, add 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley leaves and
1/4 cup minced fresh mint leaves.
