Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Cucumber
- 2 cups Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 0.75 cup Kalamata olives
- 0.75 cup Feta cheese
- 0.25 cup Extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 clove Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Wash and dry all vegetables thoroughly.
Peel the cucumber if desired, then slice it in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scrape out the seeds, then slice it into half-moons about 1/4 inch thick.
Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and place them in a large serving bowl.
Peel the red onion and slice it thinly into half rings. Add to the serving bowl.
Add the Kalamata olives (whole or sliced, depending on preference) to the bowl.
Crumble the feta cheese and sprinkle it over the vegetables in the bowl.
In a small mixing bowl or mason jar, prepare the dressing by combining the extra-virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, dried oregano, minced garlic clove, salt, and black pepper. Whisk or shake well to emulsify.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Chill the salad in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes if desired, to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the salad cold or at room temperature. Enjoy as a side dish or pair with grilled chicken or fish for a complete meal.
