Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the vegetables. Peel the cucumber if desired and slice it into half-moon slices. Place the cucumber slices in a large salad bowl.

Step 2

Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl with the cucumbers.

Step 3

Thinly slice the red onion and add it to the salad bowl. If the flavor is too strong, soak the slices in cold water for a few minutes, then drain before adding.

Step 4

Remove the seeds from the green bell pepper and thinly slice it. Add these slices to the salad bowl.

Step 5

Add the black olives to the mixture of vegetables in the salad bowl.

Step 6

Cut the feta cheese into small cubes and gently mix them into the salad.

Step 7

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.

Step 8

Pour the dressing over the salad and toss all ingredients gently to ensure everything is coated with the dressing.

Step 9

Allow the salad to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving, letting the flavors meld together. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
