- 1 small Red onion
- 1 cup Kalamata olives
- 200 grams Feta cheese
- 4 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Wash and dry all vegetables thoroughly.
Cut the tomatoes into wedges or large chunks and place them in a large salad bowl.
Peel the cucumber if desired, then slice it into rounds or half-moons. Add to the bowl.
Remove seeds and membrane from the green bell pepper, slice it into thin rings or strips, and add it to the bowl.
Peel the red onion and slice it thinly into half-moons. Add to the salad bowl.
Add the Kalamata olives to the bowl. For a more rustic presentation, leave them whole; for easier eating, you can pit and slice them if desired.
Cut the feta cheese into thick slices or large cubes. Place the pieces on top of the salad.
In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Drizzle the dressing evenly over the salad.
Gently toss the salad just before serving, or leave it as is for a more traditional presentation. Serve immediately.
