Instructions

Mix olive oil, lemon juice and oregano in a bowl, season generously with salt and pepper.

Wash the vegetables, dice the cucumber, and halve or quarter the tomatoes depending on their size. Peel the onion and slice it into thin rings. Drain the chickpeas in a colander, rinse thoroughly, and let them drain well.

Divide the dressing between both glasses. Evenly distribute the cucumber, tomatoes, and onion rings between the two glasses. Layer half of the chickpeas on top of the cucumber and tomatoes in each glass. Crumble the feta cheese roughly with your fingers and distribute it between the two glasses.

Seal the jars and store them (upright) in the refrigerator for up to four days.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Jar Layering Strategy 🥒
Always start with dressing at the bottom, followed by harder ingredients like chickpeas and cucumber to prevent soggy greens and maintain salad freshness.
Feta Crumbling Technique 🧀
Use cold feta and crumble it by hand just before serving to preserve its delicate texture and prevent clumping.
Onion Mellowing Hack 🧅
Soak sliced red onions in cold water for 10 minutes before adding to reduce sharp bite and improve digestibility.
Olive Oil Quality Matters 🫒
Use extra virgin Greek olive oil for authentic flavor - its robust profile elevates the entire salad's taste profile.
Jar Shake & Serve Trick 🥗
When ready to eat, shake the jar vigorously to distribute dressing evenly, then invert onto a plate for a perfect, restaurant-style presentation.
