Instructions

To make the dressing, combine the ingredients in a large bowl and whisk together until thickened and creamy.
Thinly slice the red onion and chop the bell pepper and cucumber into bite sized pieces. Slice the cherry tomatoes in half (or quarters if they are quite large.)
Cut the feta into small chunks, roughly 1-2cm. Optional - I like to mash half of the feta cheese with an extra dash of oil, vinegar and a pinch of salt. I like how it really distributes the feta through the salad, but you can absolutely skip this step and just use the cubed pieces.
Add the feta and chopped veg to the bowl with the dressing. Sprinkle in the chopped parsley and toss to combine and distribute the dressing. You may wish to add additional salt and/or vinegar to taste.
Serve immediately or store in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Notes

This salad serves 4 as a side dish or 2 as a main dish.
