Ingredients

3 medium tomatoes, chopped

1 cucumber, sliced into half-moons

1 small red onion, thinly sliced

1 green bell pepper, sliced

1/2 cup Kalamata olives

1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled or cubed

1/4 cup olive oil

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Prepare the Vegetables:
Wash and chop tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and bell pepper. Place them in a large mixing bowl along with the Kalamata olives.

Make the Dressing:
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Assemble the Salad:
Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss gently to coat evenly.

Add Feta & Serve:
Top with crumbled or cubed feta cheese. Serve immediately for the freshest flavor.

Notes

For best flavor, use high-quality extra virgin olive oil.

Traditional Greek salad often uses large chunks of feta placed on top rather than crumbled.

Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for extra brightness.

Chill vegetables slightly before serving for a refreshing summer dish.
