Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Begin by washing the cucumbers thoroughly to remove any dirt. Then, slice the cucumbers into bite-sized pieces, around half an inch thick, for a delightful crunch in your Cucumber Feta Salad. Place the chopped cucumbers in a large mixing bowl to ensure ample space for mixing later.
- Next, take a red onion and carefully slice it thinly, aiming for evenly-sized pieces to maintain uniform flavor throughout the salad. Once sliced, transfer the onion to the mixing bowl containing the cucumbers.
- Using your hands or a fork, crumble the feta cheese into small pieces for easy mixing. Aim for small, even fragments that will distribute nicely. Add the crumbled feta directly into the bowl with the cucumbers and onion.
- In a small bowl, whisk together a splash of extra-virgin olive oil and a splash of red wine vinegar. Use about three tablespoons of olive oil and one tablespoon of vinegar for a balanced dressing.
- Sprinkle dried oregano over the salad mixture, then season with salt and freshly cracked pepper according to your taste preference. Stir gently to ensure everything is well-coated without bruising the veggies.
- Gently toss all the ingredients together in the large mixing bowl until everything is well-combined. Serve immediately to enjoy its fresh, vibrant flavors.

Notes
Use the freshest cucumbers and herbs possible for the best flavor. Dress the salad just before serving to keep it crisp.
