Ingredients
For the vinaigrette:
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
pinch sugar
freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano or 1/4 teaspoon dried
2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
For the salad:

1/4 cup pitted, halved kalamata olives
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 pound steamed shrimp, peeled and de-veined
salt to taste

Cooking Instructions
1. In a mixing bowl, whisk the vinegar, sugar, pepper, oregano and
feta cheese together. Slowly whisk in the olive oil.
(This can be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to
5 days.)
2. Combine the cu***ber, tomatoes, olives, onion and shrimp in a large
mixing bowl. Add the vinaigrette and toss to combine. Season with salt
