Easy Greek Salad

Ingredients

You can change the amount of the vegetables or cheese to whatever your preferences are. I usually add extra feta and olives. :)
  • 1 cup tomatoes (I prefer vine or Roma tomatoes)
  • 1 cup cucumbers
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • 1/2 cup crumpled feta cheese
  • stuffed or kalmata olives (as many as you like)
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
Equipment
  • Small bowl
  • Medium bowl
Steps
  1. Dice the tomatoes and cucumbers and add them to a medium sized mixing bowl.
  2. Dice the red onion into small pieces, and add them to the salad.
  3. Crumple the feta cheese into the salad, and mix it all up. You can also add olives at this point, or choose to add them to the top of the salad as a garnish.
  4. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, vinegar, parsley and oregano, and mix it up really well.
  5. Pour the dressing over the vegetable mix, and toss to coat everything.
  6. Chill for 10 minutes, and serve. If desired, top off the serving with a few olives.
This recipe makes plenty for 2-3 people. For a variation, you can also add to the salad red or green peppers, or add crushed garlic to the dressing. Try it out and let us know what works for you!
