Been trying to eqt more Mediterranen style diet of late. Here's a favorite. I can post a pic next time i make it. I use whatever veg I have on hand ie: mushrooms, zucchini etc.


For The Dressing:

1/3 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon minced garlic (or 1 large garlic cloves, minced)
2 teaspoons dried oregano (plus extra to serve)
1/4 teaspoon salt

For The Salad:

1 large cucumber, halved lengthways and sliced
10 ounces grape tomatoes (or cherry tomatoes), halved
1 green pepper seeded and sliced
½ red onion, sliced thinly
14 ounce can chickpeas washed and drained
10 ounces pitted Kalamata olives
good quality creamy feta cheese (buy the brick it is tastier)

Instructions

Whisk together dressing ingredients in a jug or jar.

Mix together all of the salad ingredients in a large bowl. Toss with
half of the dressing. Season with extra salt ONLY IF NEEDED (depends
how salty your feta cheese is).

Break up the feta cheese, top salad and drizzle remaining dressing .
