Shopska Salad

"Shopska salad is a light, spring salad consisting of veggies with grated cheese on top. Perfect to take to a barbecue. Shopska salad is similar to Greek salad. There is disagreement over who came up with it as it comes from Shopluk region populated by Bulgarians, Macedonians and Serbians. Shopska salad consists of tomatoes, cucumbers, yellow onions, light green or yellow bell peppers all diced into cubes, combined with a olive oil and vinegar vinaigrette, and finally topped with grated cheese (feta or goat cheese). As the bell peppers in the region are spicier than most, there is generally a 3:1 oil to vinegar consistency, with some people omitting vinegar completely."
