There are many ways to make Greek Salad. This one’s my very favorite - with a dressing that’s exactly perfect! I recently doubled the recipe and took it to a dinner party for 10 people; there weren’t many leftovers!
Best-Ever Greek Salad:
To Prepare the Salad:
1 long English cucumber, unpeeled and in ½-in. (1.25 cm) chunks
3 vine-ripened tomatoes, in ½-in. chunks
1 sweet medium onion or 1 medium red onion, sliced in half crosswise, and then into eighths
1 large green pepper, in chunks
1 c. (250 mL) Greek olives or unsliced black olives, drained and pitted
½ c. (125 mL) feta cheese, drained and crumbled
To Prepare the Dressing:
¼ c. (60 mL) red white vinegar
¾ c. (180 mL) olive oil
1 tsp. (5 mL) dried basil
½ tsp. (2.54 mL) dried oregano
½ tsp. (2.54 mL) salt
Black pepper to taste, coarsely ground
Combine and toss salad with dressing just before serving.
