A delicious, and incredibly easy to whip together Greek salad with homemade dressing. We've made it many times, and I've even had others whip it together with my notes, and it turned out just perfectly. You can adjust the vegetables around to have more/less of the ones that are your favorite. The great thing about this Greek salad is the there are no large olives floating around, rather a few are chopped finely and incorporated into the dressing. Yum! It's a perfect accompaniment to salmon (to be posted soon.) Enjoy!
Delicious Greek Salad
In a large bowl, mix:
1/2 - 1 cucumber, peeled and chopped into bite-size pieces
1/2 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 green bell pepper, diced
1/4 red onion, thinly sliced & diced
5-10 cherry tomatoes (or 2 romas) diced into bite-size pieces
large handful romaine lettuce, sliced
large handful spinach, sliced
Mix together the following dressing in a small bowl:
3 Tbsp olive oil
2 tsp balsamic vinegar
3/4 - 1 tsp Italian seasoning blend
dash salt & pepper
5-6 Calamata olives, diced
3 Tbsp crumbled feta cheese
Toss dressing with vegetables. Serve! It's my favorite fresh, but still tastes great the next day, too, when all the flavors have melded together a bit more. Enjoy!
