Method

Combine all the vegetables in a mixing bowl. Sprinkle on the crumbled cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, oregano and pepper. Use a rubber spatula to fold everything together thoroughly. Taste for seasoning - it might need a pinch of salt, but be careful since both the olives and cheese are quite salty.
