Wash and dry all vegetables and parsley thoroughly.
Using a spiralizer or julienne peeler, cut the zucchini into spiralized noodles resembling pasta or use a sharp knife to slice thinly.
Peel the cucumber, slice it in half lengthwise, and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Dice the cucumber into small cubes.
Core and dice the red bell pepper into small, bite-sized pieces.
Halve the cherry tomatoes.
Finely chop the red onion.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and dice the flesh. Drizzle a little lemon juice over the avocado to prevent browning.
In a large bowl, combine the zucchini noodles, cucumber, bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and avocado.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and add it to the bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Crumble the feta cheese over the top of the salad and give it a final toss.
Serve immediately as a fresh and vibrant side dish or a light main course.
