Leanne's Greek Salad

  • 4

Ingredients

  • Salad:
  • 3-4 cups red leaf lettuce, torn into bite sized pieces
  • 1/2 cup grape tomatoes, cut in half
  • 1/4 cup seedless cucumber, sliced and cut in quarters
  • 10 pitless Kalamata olives, sliced in half (lengthwise)
  • 1/3 cup Feta cheese crumbles (I buy the herbed one)
  • 1/4 cup minced red onion (optional; sometimes I put it in, sometimes not)
  • DRESSING:
  • 1-2 cloves garlic, pressed
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 2 shakes dried basil
  • 1 shake oregano

Preparation

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, place all the salad ingredients. In a small pitcher or juice glass (that's what I use), place the dressing ingredients. Stir well with a fork.

Pour dressing over the top of the salad and toss well. Serve immediately with freshly ground pepper over the top.
