Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large fresh cucumbers, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped
  • Juice of 1 large lemon
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  3. Pour the dressing over the sliced cucumbers, then gently toss to coat all pieces evenly. Add the crumbled feta cheese, red onion, and dill, mixing carefully to distribute all ingredients evenly.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, consider adding kalamata olives, cherry tomatoes, or bell peppers.
  • Drain excess water from cucumbers before serving if necessary to prevent sogginess.
  • This salad is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
