2 cups water
Dressing:
Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan and add kashi. Reduce heat to medium and cook 25 to 30 minutes, covered tightly, until tender. Cool.
Meanwhile, dice tomatoes. Peel cucumber, cut into quarters length-wise and slice thinly. Combine with tomatoes. Add olives, Feta cheese and chickpeas.
In a separate bowl, make the dressing by whisking lemon juice with oil, garlic, salt, pepper and oregano. Combine with tomato mixture and when kashi is cool, stir gently into salad, along with the parsley and the mint. Serve cold or at room temperature.
