Ingredients

• 4 pieces Ciabatta rolls (or your preferred bread)
• 1 medium Cucumber
• 2 medium Tomatoes
• 1 small Red onion
• 0.5 cups Kalamata olives
• 0.75 cups Feta cheese, crumbled
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Red wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Butter (optional, for toasting bread)

Directions

Step 1

Slice the ciabatta rolls in half lengthwise. If desired, spread a thin layer of butter on each cut side and lightly toast them in a skillet or under a broiler until golden brown. Set aside.

Step 2

Peel the cucumber (if preferred) and dice it into small cubes. Dice the tomatoes and thinly slice the red onion. Roughly chop the Kalamata olives.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced cucumber, tomatoes, sliced red onion, chopped olives, crumbled feta cheese, and parsley.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.

Step 5

Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss everything gently until well combined.

Step 6

Spoon generous portions of the Greek salad mixture onto the bottom halves of the toasted ciabatta rolls.

Step 7

Place the top halves of the rolls onto the sandwiches, pressing down gently to secure the filling.

Step 8

Serve immediately, or wrap the sandwiches in parchment paper if packing for a picnic or lunch.
