Cucumber Salad

Cucumbers are one of, if not my favorite vegetable/fruit (you know that confusing distinction: some say it is a fruit if it has seeds, therefore cucumbers are a fruit (scientific logic), but others say that if it is sweet it's a fruit (common knowledge), I'm siding with them). Regardless, fruit or vegetable, they're crunchy, fresh and delicious. Especially if they're Armenian (curly, skinny, and weird), fresh out of your garden, and prepared the following way...

This simple recipe is easy and can be eaten immediately or left to marinate. Don't let it marinate too long or the cucumbers will turn soft and maybe soon enough have metamorphasized into...pickles!! Well anyway, according to your taste.

Cucumber Salad

One sliced cucumber (mine were Armenian but anything fresh will do)
1-2 Tbsp. of olive oil
1 Tbsp. of vinegar*
Salt and Pepper to taste
3 Tbsp. crumbled feta


*I've used both apple cider and balsamic. Both work great though surprisingly balsamic was less vinegary and therefore blended better.

Mmmmmm enjoy.
