The First Fruits of Our Garden... Cucumbers and Tomatoes with Feta


Ok, so the feta cheese didn't come from the garden, but I wish it did as we go through so much of it in our household! We love it.

This years garden is rather slow compared to other years due to the incredibly wet season we've had. Great for the yards but bad for my vegetables! The tomatoes are just now starting to ripen and I've only gotten 3 cucumbers so far! But I have a lot of tiny 2-3 inch cucumbers on the vine so it won't be long now! Especially with the hot sunny days we should have ahead.

This photo is of a simple side dish we had earlier this week;

1/3 c Tuscan Italian Salad Dressing drizzled over all

Chill if you have time or just serve room temperature.Print Friendly and PDF
