Greek Salad

Directions

  1. 1Split the cucumber in half, then slice it down the middle, cutting them thick for crunch.
  2. 2Cut tomatoes into halves, then fourths, into four segments to get nice chunks.
  3. 3Cut around the core of the bell pepper, then make thick strips, and dice it up.
  4. 4Thinly slice red onion and soak them in cold water for a few minutes to reduce sharpness.
  5. 5Pat the soaked onions dry and add them to the other vegetables.
  6. 6Combine two parts olive oil, one part red vinegar, a tiny bit of Dijon mustard, dried oregano, and a light pinch of salt for the dressing, whisking as you drizzle in the oil.
  7. 7Add lots of feta to the salad.
  8. 8Toss the salad.
  9. 9Finish with some balsamic glaze for sweetness.
