- 3 ounces feta cheese
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt

Instructions
Wash all the produce thoroughly under cool running water and pat dry.
Cut the cherry tomatoes in halves and add them to a large salad bowl.
Peel the cucumber if desired, then dice it into bite-sized cubes and add to the bowl.
Slice the red onion thinly into half-moons or small strips and toss them into the mix.
Pit and halve the Kalamata olives if they’re whole, and add them to the salad.
Crumble the feta cheese over the top of the vegetables.
In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, fresh lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the bowl and gently toss everything until evenly coated.
Optionally, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley as a garnish for added flavor and a pop of color.
