Method

To make vinaigrette, combine oregano, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Whisk in olive oil.

Stir in tomatoes, cucumber, onion, and olives. If the feta is cut into large cubes, gently stir it into the mixture. If the feta is crumbled, sprinkle it on top of the salad.
