Wash all the vegetables thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Cut the cucumber lengthwise into quarters, then slice into small, bite-sized pieces.
Halve the cherry tomatoes, then set aside in a large mixing bowl.
Dice the red bell pepper, removing seeds and membrane, then add to the mixing bowl.
Thinly slice the red onion and add to the mixing bowl.
Roughly chop the Kalamata olives and add them to the mixing bowl along with the cherry tomatoes and the other chopped vegetables.
Crumble the feta cheese over the salad ingredients in the mixing bowl.
Chop fresh parsley and mint leaves, and sprinkle over the salad.
In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by mixing the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, minced fresh garlic, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the mixing bowl.
Toss all the ingredients gently to evenly distribute the dressing and combine the flavors.
Let the salad sit for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve the fresh Mediterranean Salata immediately as a refreshing side dish or a light main course.
