GUIDE / INSTRUCTIONS

Feel free to add your favorite vegetables in this classic greek salad.  In Greece, this village salad, is typically served from early spring until mid-fall.  A refreshing and easy to prepare dish that pairs well with anything!

  • Begin by making the dressing: In a bowl large enough to hold the salad, whisk together the vinegar, salt, pepper, honey, garlic, and oregano. Whisking vigorously, slowly pour in the olive oil to form an emulsion.
  • Assemble the salad: Add to the dressing: cucumber, peppers, tomatoes, olives, oregano, red onions and feta. Toss to combine.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Serve or refrigerate for up to 3 hours. Let the salad sit out at room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
