 1 yellow bell pepper, chopped

 1 green bell pepper, chopped

 1/4 cup diced red onion

 15 grape tomatoes, halved (about 1 cup halved grape tomatoes)

 1/3 cup pitted kalamata olives, chopped if desired

 1 medium cucumber, sliced and quartered

 4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled or cut into 1/2 inch cubes

For the dressing:

 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (I use Kasandrinos)

 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

 1 cloves garlic, minced

 1 teaspoon dried oregano

 freshly ground salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

 Place all salad ingredients into a large bowl and toss to combine.

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and oregano. Pour onto salad and toss again to well combine. Taste and add salt and pepper as you'd like.

 Place in refrigerator for 1 hour to marinate, or serve immediately. Salad is best enjoyed within 2-3 days after making.
