BELL PEPPER, TOMATO, AND FETA SALAD
I make this salad all the time in various configurations, using more or less bell pepper, tomato, or feta cheese, depending on what I have in my fridge. Mixed color bell peppers look prettiest. The dressing couldn't be easier and can be used on different salads as well.

Steps:
- Combine peppers, tomatoes, onions, garlic, parsley in a bowl with your fingertips. Squeeze the juice of the lemon with the lemon half sitting upright. This will help prevent the seeds from falling into the bowl. The lemon juice will spill down over the sides of the lemon and the seeds will remain with the fruit. Squeeze the juice evenly over the salad. If the lemon is under-ripe, microwave it for 10 seconds before you cut into it. Next, sprinkle a tablespoon of vinegar over the salad -- just eyeball it. Drizzle the extra-virgin olive oil over the salad, add the salt, pepper and cumin. Toss again. Taste to adjust seasonings and serve.

Tips:
- Choose ripe and flavorful bell peppers and tomatoes: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the taste of your salad. Look for bell peppers that are firm and have a deep, vibrant color. Tomatoes should be ripe and juicy with no blemishes.
- Use a variety of colors: Red, orange, and yellow bell peppers will add a pop of color to your salad. You can also use a mix of different colored tomatoes, such as red, yellow, and green.
- Roasted bell peppers add a smoky flavor: Roasting bell peppers before adding them to the salad will give them a slightly smoky flavor that complements the sweetness of the tomatoes.
- Fresh herbs brighten up the salad: A sprinkle of fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, or thyme, will add a burst of flavor to the salad.
- Use a good quality olive oil: The olive oil you use will make a big difference in the taste of your salad. Choose a fruity, extra-virgin olive oil.
- Season to taste: Don't be afraid to adjust the seasonings in the salad to your own taste. Add more salt, pepper, or herbs until you're happy with the flavor.
