Classic Greek salad combines tangy olives, salty feta, sweet tomatoes and cool cucumber. It is perfect on its own, as a side dish to griddled meats or stirred through couscous and other grains. There is no cooking involved so it’s really just a chopping and assembly job so it’s great for a quick snack and perfect for picnic hampers and lunchboxes.

- 4 salad tomatoes, diced
- ½ a cucumber peeled, quartered and diced
