Instructions
- Add the sliced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, olives, and feta cheese to a large mixing or salad bowl. If you are using onions, add them as well.

Greek Dressing

Notes
- You can make the dressing in advance and refrigerate it in an airtight container until ready to use.
- Traditional Greek salads usually have onions. I did not add them to my salad because I am not a fan of onions. If you like onions, I recommend adding 1/4 cup of chopped or sliced red onions.
