Greek salad is a year-round favourite. We lightened up the dressing by cutting out some oil and then added water to “stretch it” a bit. Broth works just as well.

Ingredients

Fresh lemon juice

2 tbsp(s)

Black pepper

¼ pinch(es), freshly ground

Olives

6 large, Kalamata, pitted, chopped

Olive oil

2 tbsp(s), extra virgin

Water

2 tbsp(s)

Lemon zest

1 tsp(s)

Table salt

¼ tsp(s)

Fresh dill

3 tbsp(s), or mint, fresh, chopped

Cucumber

1½ cup(s), diced, seedless (about 1/2 large cucumber)

Lettuce

6 cup(s), chopped, Romaine, shredded

Crumbled feta cheese

¼ gm

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together oil, water, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt and pepper until blended; stir in dill and scallions. Add tomatoes, cucumber and olives; toss to mix and coat.
  2. Place 1 1/2 cups of lettuce on each of 4 salad plates; top each with about 3/4 cup of tomato mixture and then 1 tablespoon of feta. Spoon any dressing left in bottom of bowl over salads. Yields 1 salad per serving.
