This refreshing Mediterranean-inspired salad combines crisp cucumbers, juicy tomatoes, and tangy feta cheese, all enhanced with a zesty herb dressing.
Peel the cucumbers if desired, then slice them into bite-sized pieces.
Peeling the cucumbers can reduce bitterness, but leaving the skin on adds extra fiber.
Cut the tomatoes into wedges and add them to a large mixing bowl.
Use a serrated knife for easier cutting of the tomatoes.
Thinly slice the red onion and bell pepper, then add them to the bowl.
Soak the onion slices in cold water for a few minutes to mellow their flavor.
Add the crumbled feta cheese and olives to the bowl.
Ensure the olives are pitted for easier eating.
In a small bowl, whisk together the oregano, vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Toss the salad just before serving to keep the vegetables crisp.
Transfer the salad to a serving bowl and serve immediately.
Garnish with additional oregano or a sprinkle of chili flakes for extra flavor.
