When time is short and you need something fast and delicious this is my newest go to snack or side. While it doesn't have ALL the ingredients of a traditional greek salad it has enough to achieve the great flavour of one. Bonus: I almost always have cucumbers and tomatoes on hand!
Tomatoes
Cucumbers
Feta cheese
Balsamic dressing - I use Wishbone Balsamic Breeze Spritzers
Salt and/or pepper - optional
This is a perfect and easy to pack lunch, just add chicken to make it a meal. Great as a side with dinner or simply a healthy snack to enjoy while enjoying your fav shows or surfing the net! Pin It
I LOVE Greek salad & have it every day. I make up a bunch in a container and just scoop it out, add a roma tomato & the dressing & it's ready to eat in a minute.
ReplyDeleteI cut up 1&1/2 cucumbers, 1 orange or yellow pepper, a couple of thinly sliced red onion slices, add feta cheese (patted dry) and a couple of heaping tablespoons of drained, pitted, sliced Greek olives.
In another small container, I mix about 2 parts corn oil (olive oil goes funny in the fridge), 1 part red or white wine vinegar, Lowrey's Seasoning Salt, Greek seasoning & a touch of water. That sits in the fridge too.
When I am ready to have some, I cut up 1 roma tomato (per person), add some of the salad mixture & some dressing & yum! It only takes a couple of minutes to make up, keeps well for 2 or 3 days in the fridge & is SO yummy & fast to put on the table.
Thank you for your recipe! Your greek salad is to DIE for! I'll try it out soon :)
