Greek Salad Bites – Easy & Delicious Cucumber Appetizer

ByCarol

There is something about Greek salad that makes it irresistible. And these Greek salad bites take everything I love about the classic Greek salad and turn it into a quick, bite-sized appetizer. Instead of a bowl of salad, each bite is neatly stacked on a crisp cucumber slice, making it perfect for snacking without the mess.

Crisp cucumber holds a mix of creamy feta, juicy tomatoes, and salty kalamata olives, all brought together with olive oil and oregano. They are great for gatherings or just when I want something fresh and flavorful without much effort.
