This was a very refreshing dish, but I had to take out some of the oil-lemon dressing. It was a bit much. And I actually ended up using three cucumbers instead of just one.

This was a very refreshing little salad. I would cut back the dressing by about a half in the future as it seemed a bit oily for us, or perhaps I'll just add a big handful of spinach to lighten it up. I ended up drizzling the leftover dressing and some of the mint over kefir (Lebni) soft cheese, sprinkled with red pepper flakes and served with pita bread. That was really nice as well. Thank you for sharing!

We really enjoyed the flavor of this. We felt there was way too much feta in comparison to the cucumber. Next time I would cut the cheese in half.....and we love feta.

This is a very attractive side salad dish. I used an English cucumber to minimize the water and seeds which worked very well.
