instructions

Cut the tomatoes into wedges or large chunks (I sliced some and cut the rest in wedges).
Cut the partially peeled cucumber in half length-wise, then slice into thick halves (at least 1/2″ in thickness)
Thinly slice the bell pepper into rings.
Cut the red onion in half and thinly slice into half moons.
Place everything in a large salad dish. Add a good handful of the pitted kalamata olives.
Season very lightly with salt (just a pinch). Pour the olive oil and red wine vinegar.
Give everything a very gentle toss to mix; do NOT over mix, this salad is not meant to be handled too much.
Now add the the feta blocks on top. Sprinkle the dried oregano.
Serve with crusty bread!
