- 1/4 cup kalamata olives, pitted and sliced (optional)
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil

- In a small bowl or jar, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to coat.
- Chill for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow flavors to blend.
Notes
- If you want to add more crunch, consider adding some chopped bell peppers or cherry tomatoes.
- For a creamier version, you can substitute the feta cheese with Greek yogurt or add a dollop on top.
- This salad can be made a few hours in advance but is best served fresh to keep the cucumbers crisp.
