Wash and thoroughly dry the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and green bell pepper.
Slice the cucumber into thin, round slices. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half. Thinly slice the red onion and dice the green bell pepper into bite-sized pieces. Place all chopped vegetables into a large mixing bowl.
Add the Kalamata olives to the bowl with the vegetables.
Crumble the feta cheese and sprinkle it evenly on top of the vegetables.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, Dijon mustard, salt, and ground black pepper until the dressing is well combined and emulsified.
Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Divide the salad between two serving plates or bowls and serve immediately.
