- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Salad
- 2 large English cucumbers halved, then sliced

- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese plus more for serving
- ½ cup kalamata olives pitted

Instructions
Vinaigrette Dressing
- Add all of the vinaigrette ingredients to a small bowl and whisk to combine. Alternatively, you can put the ingredients into a small jar with a lid and shake until combined.
Salad
- Add all of the salad ingredients to a mixing bowl and pour the vinaigrette over the top. Stir gently until the salad is well coated, then transfer to a serving bowl using a slotted spoon, leaving any excess dressing behind in the mixing bowl.
