This type of chopped salad was once common breakfast fare in Israel. Ingredients:
1 pound campari or plum tomatoes, diced, drained |
1 1/2 cups diced seeded watermelon |
1 large green bell pepper, seeded, cut into 1/3-inch cubes |
1/2 large english hothouse cucumber, seeded, cut into 1/3-inch cubes |
1/2 cup very thinly sliced radishes |
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided |
10 ounces feta cheese, broken into small cubes (about 2 1/2 cups), divided |
2 green onions, chopped, divided |
1/4 cup thinly sliced fresh mint leaves, divided |
1/2 cup plain greek-style yogurt |
1 teaspoon dried oregano |
Directions:
1. Toss first 5 ingredients and 2 tablespoons oil in large bowl. Add half each of cheese, green onions, and mint. Mix remaining cheese, green onions, mint, and oil in processor; add yogurt and oregano. Process just to blend (do not over-mix or dressing will get thin). Season dressing with salt and pepper; mix into salad.
2. Ingredient tip: Campari tomatoes are about the size and shape of golf balls. They're sold on the vine, and they're available at many supermarkets.
