Start by washing and drying all the vegetables. Chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place them into a large salad bowl.
Slice the cucumber in half lengthwise, then cut into half-moon slices. Add them to the bowl with the lettuce.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and thinly slice the red onion. Add both to the salad bowl.
Add the Kalamata olives to the salad bowl, keeping them whole or slicing them in halves, depending on your preference.
Crumble the feta cheese over the top of the salad ingredients.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined to create the dressing.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss all ingredients to combine and ensure an even distribution of dressing.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for a short while to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
