- big pinch of salt and fresh ground pepper
- chopped romaine lettuce
- chopped green and red peppers
- chopped cucumbers
- chopped tomatoes
- sliced red onion
- feta cheese, cubed or crumbled
- peperoncini
- kalamata olives
- cooked and sliced grilled chicken (or shrimp), marinated in Greek Salad Dressing

Preparation
Step 1
Combine lemon juice, vinegar, oregano, thyme and salt and pepper in bowl. Using a whisk, slowly stream in olive oil and whisk into vinegar mixture. You will see it thicken up a bit (emulsifying) while combining. Store in a jar with a tight lid in the refrigerator after using. Always give the dressing jar a couple of shakes before serving. In my opinion, best at room temperature, so take it out a few minutes before using.
For the salad, any, some, or all of the following:
