Out of personal preference alone, I cut cucumber length wise, seeded and then sliced to make 1/2 inch "u" shaped pieces (it's a seed thing). Marinated overnight and put on a bed of lettuce, sprinkled with a little feta and sloshed a little marinade on top. I imagine putting into a lettuce leaf with feta would also have the same nummy effect.<br/>If the regular balsamic is to strong, try white balsamic, it's not as serious (for lack of a better word). I got crazy and used coconut vinegar once, which is very mild, a tad sweet and doesn't taste like coconut at all. Call your lawyer....I've been messing with your recipe!!! LOL

Personally I found this very good. I was looking for something very easy to put together and with few ingredients. I doubled the recipe as an appetizer for four people (including three guys who eat 3000 calories a day). I had a few leftovers but my guests seemed to like it, though I have no ravings to report ;) Thanks for a good recipe.

I graduated from the University of Delaware's HRIM program in '06.
Been several years since I was last active and experimenting, but I'm coming back into it.
I used to be vegetarian (even had a touch of the veganism), and I still love me my veggies, but I also love me my meat. I will never stop liking tofu no matter what. Don't knock until you try it cooked PROPERLY. Tofu is so easy to mess up.
