Instructions
Wash and pat dry all the fresh vegetables.

Thinly slice the red onion into half-moon shapes.
In a large serving bowl, combine the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and Kalamata olives.
Crumble the feta cheese over the top of the mixed vegetables.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and ground black pepper until well combined.
