Wash and dry all produce. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Zest the lemon, then juice one half. Mince or grate the garlic. Cut the cucumber into ¾-inch cubes. Halve, peel, and thinly slice half the onion. Halve the olives and tomatoes. Finely chop the oregano leaves. Drain and rinse the beans.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the cannellini beans and garlic and cook, tossing until the garlic is fragrant, for 1-2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
Toast the pitas: Cut the pita into thin strips. Place the strips onto a baking sheet and drizzle with oil. Place in the oven for about 5 minutes, until slightly crispy.
In a large bowl, combine the oregano, lemon juice, 1 Tablespoon balsamic and a large drizzle of oil. Season with salt and pepper.
Toss the cucumber, feta, tomatoes, cannellini beans, olives, and red onion (to taste) into the dressing. Season with salt and pepper.
