  1. 1

    In a jar or small bowl, whisk the olive oil, vinegar, mustard, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper until the dressing thickens slightly.

    Cut the cucumber, bell pepper and onion into small dice, about 1 cm (1/2 in).

  4. 4

    Quarter the tomatoes and halve the olives.

    Pat the chickpeas dry with a paper towel.

  6. 6

    Put everything in a large bowl and keep it cold until serving.

    Just before serving, pour over the dressing and toss well so every piece is coated.

  8. 8

    Scatter the feta on top, toss once more lightly and taste for salt. Serve right away.
