Greek Cucumber Salad

My garden is overflowing with cucumbers right now and I’m looking for new recipes to use them up. I love cucumbers and this salad was so refreshing especially with this heat wave we’re stuck in. I made it for dinner one night with grilled chicken and it was so good. Madeline ate three bowls of it! It would be great for a picnic too. You could prep all the ingredients and then mix it up right before your ready to eat.

In a large bowl, mix together the cucumbers, tomatoes and sliced onion. In a measuring cup, whisk the olive oil, lemon juice and oregano together until well combine. Pour over the vegetables. Sprinkle with feta cheese and black olives. Season with salt and pepper to your liking. Enjoy!
