everytime i’ve wanted to make this salad, i’ve had to look it up online because i’ve never had a chance to sit down and add it to my list of recipes here. well, i finally did it =]

i originally looked this recipe up after my sibling trip to albania and this was the type of salad they had over there. no romaine or lettuce, but a cucumber salad with tomatoes, olive oil drizzled over it with salt and pepper. it was delicious… and this salad is pretty close to that. i added the feta cheese for more texture and taste. very fresh, especially nice for the summertime !
