INGREDIENTS: 
Servings: 4

1/2 lettuce "iceberg"salad
1-2 cucumbers
2 big tomatoes
~10 green olives
~10 black olives
200g feta cheese
1 onion
1/2 lemon
salt
oregano
EVO oil

1. Cut the onion into slices and squeeze some lemon juice over to reduce the bitterness of the onion.
2. Peel the cucumber and cut in into slices.
3. Slice the tomatoes.
4.  Remove the bones from the green olives and keep the black ones whole.
Note: If your olives are boneless, add them without cutting them.
5. Cut feta cheese into cubes 1.5cm big.
6. Wash the salad and rip it into medium pieces.
Note: Ripping the salad helps to protect the salad from oxygenation and browning as a consequence.
