Tomato, Apricot, and Feta Salad With Mint Recipe

Why This Recipe Works

Ripe, juicy tomatoes and sweet apricots reinforce each other's flavors and contrast well with briny feta cheese.

It's tough to improve on a classic Caprese salad of ripe summer tomatoes, fresh mozzarella cheese, basil, and olive oil, but it's pretty darn easy to make a nice lateral transition to something that's not quite as classic yet equally tasty. Here, I've combined those same tomatoes with sweet apricots, briny feta cheese, and mint for a take that's just as refreshing, but with a completely different personality.
