Classic Greek Salad

Instructions

  1. Prepare the vegetables
    • Chop tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, and red onion. Place in a large salad bowl.
    • Add olives and feta cheese.
  2. Make the dressing
    • In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  3. Toss the salad
    • Drizzle dressing over the vegetables and toss gently to combine.
  4. Serve
    • Serve immediately with warm pita bread or alongside grilled meats.

🌟 Tips

  • Authentic touch: Use block feta rather than pre-crumbled for better flavor and texture.
  • Extra flavor: Add capers or a squeeze of lemon juice to the dressing.
  • Serving idea: Top with grilled chicken or shrimp to make it a hearty main dish.

Ashley, I can also give you a Greek Salad with a creamy tzatziki dressing version that’s slightly richer and perfect as a side for gyro sandwiches. Do you want me to share that?
