Authentic Greek Salad
Living in Cyprus, Greek Salad is part of at least three meals of my week. This is my families recipe.
Ingredients
Greek Salad Dressing
- ½ large Lemon Juice
- 7 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 2 Tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
- 1 Tbsp Dried Oregano
- 1 Tsp Salt
Greek Salad Ingredients
- 4 Medium Ripe Tomatoes
- 1 Large Cucumber
- ½ Medium Red Onion
- ½ Medium Green Pepper
- ¼ Cup Greek Olives Kalamata or Crete
- 1 Cup Feta Cheese
Instructions
- Cut all the vegetables into medium-sized cubes. Cut the onions into slices and mix all in a salad bowl. Add the olives and toss. Now add all the dressing ingredients except the Feta cheese and give it a good toss.
- Break your feta cheese in to big chunks and place them over the salad. Sprinkle the oregano as well as a few drops of olive oil across the feta cheese and salad.
Notes
Best served with Grilled or Toasted Pita Bread
