Peel and slice 2 cucumbers.
Thinly slice 1 red onion.
Slice 1 green bell pepper into rings.

STEP 2
Assemble the salad:
Add tomatoes, cucumbers, onion, and bell pepper to a large bowl.
Toss in a handful of Kalamata olives.
Add a few teaspoons of capers (optional but great).

STEP 3
Top with feta: Place a thick slice of feta on top (or crumble it if you prefer).
Finish with olive oil + salt: Drizzle generously with extra virgin olive oil.Sprinkle with sea salt to taste.
Serve & enjoy:
And if you’re looking for the perfect pairing? A chilled glass of Gratsi White brings out all the fresh, vibrant flavors of this salad. Simple, honest, and oh-so-satisfying. Cheers!
