Wash the cucumbers and use a vegetable peeler to shave them into long, thin ribbons, stopping when you reach the watery seeds in the center.

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, dried oregano, and honey until well emulsified.

Stir the chopped kalamata olives into the dressing to allow the flavors to meld.
- 5
In a large serving bowl, combine the cucumber ribbons and thinly sliced red onions.
- 6
Drizzle the olive lemon vinaigrette over the vegetables and toss gently with tongs to coat without breaking the ribbons.

Top the salad with crumbled feta cheese and fresh chopped parsley.
