Bright, vibrant, and bursting with Mediterranean flavor, this Greek Salata is the epitome of fresh, wholesome dining in just 15 minutes! Featuring crisp English cucumber, sweet cherry tomatoes, tangy red onion, briny Kalamata olives, and creamy crumbled feta cheese, this classic Greek salad is tossed in a simple yet flavor-packed dressing of extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, and dried oregano. Perfect as a refreshing side dish or a light and satisfying main, this no-cook recipe is ideal for busy weeknights or summer gatherings. Serve it alongside warm pita bread or grilled meats to bring a taste of Greece to your table.
Wash and pat dry all the fresh vegetables.
Cut the cucumber into bite-sized quarters by first halving it lengthwise, then slicing into quarters.
Halve the cherry tomatoes, or leave them whole if preferred.
Thinly slice the red onion into half-moon shapes.
In a large serving bowl, combine the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and Kalamata olives.
Crumble the feta cheese over the top of the mixed vegetables.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and ground black pepper until well combined.
Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss everything together to coat evenly.
Let the salad sit for about 5–10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
Serve as a light main course or as a side dish with pita bread or grilled meat.
