This Greek salad recipe is incredibly good! It's nice and tangy and tastes even
better in the summer when tomatoes and cucumbers are at their best.

Make a restaurant-worthy dish at home with this top-rated Greek salad recipe. 




HOW TO MAKE GREEK SALAD

You'll find a detailed ingredient list and step-by-step instructions in the
recipe below, but let's go over the basics:




WHAT IS IN GREEK SALAD?

This Greek salad is a delicious combination of romaine lettuce, sliced
cucumbers, chopped tomatoes, pitted black olives (or Kalamata olives), red and
green bell peppers, a red onion, and feta cheese. 



The dressing is a simple mixture of olive oil, a juiced lemon, dried oregano,
and ground black pepper. 




HOW TO MAKE HOMEMADE GREEK SALAD

Combine the salad ingredients in a large bowl, mix up the dressing in another
bowl, and toss the salad in the dressing. That’s how easy it is to make Greek
salad with a homemade dressing! You’ll find the full, step-by-step recipe
below. 




CAN YOU MAKE GREEK SALAD AHEAD OF TIME? 

You can make the Greek salad dressing a few days in advance — just store it in
the refrigerator until you’re ready to use it. We recommend throwing the salad
ingredients just before serving for the most delicious results. 




ALLRECIPES COMMUNITY TIPS AND PRAISE

“This was so good,” raves one Allrecipes community member. “I made it for some
friends that came over for dinner and it was a big hit. I will for sure make
this often. It would be great for a light lunch.”



“A simply wonderful salad,” raves one Allrecipes community member. “Very easy to
prepare. The dressing works beautifully with the feta. I've made it several
times in the past few weeks and loved it every time.”



“All the flavors went well together and the dressing was nice and light,” says
collegechef08. “I keep a lot of these ingredients on hand so I'll be making this
often.”

This was very tasty! Go buy a jar of kalamata olives instead, add a splash of
red wine vinegar and some garlic and it's even better!

The way the salad was presented allowed one to really appreciate the vegetable
flavors. I was on a quest to find the "restaurant style" Greek salad. I added
more oregano (doubled the dressing portions) used mediterranian feta, no olives,
and red wine vinegar. Now the red wine vinegar gave it the missing zip in my
opinion. This may change the healthiness but if I live on this stuff, I am sure
it will be great eating vegees regularly! Pita bread is a must w/my Greek salads
too! (my next quest~to find a lowfat recipe!) Thank you!

I love the salad and think you can add/subtract veggies you want to but then it
wouldn't be an official Greek salad. I do wish the dressing had a bit more zip.

Great salad, can also be called Balkan salad or shepherds salad. I served
tomatoes on the side (just me) and substitute banana peppers for olives but
would have added olives too if I had them. Good to invest in quality feta.
