I wanted a fresh salad to go with the Greek Style Minestrone with Turkey and Feta Meatballs I made for dinner. I just grabbed whatever ingredients I had on hand. The salad was simple, crisp, salty, garlicky and a bit tart. I really, really loved the flavors - my husband and kids liked it as much as I did. Simple ingredients sometimes make the tastiest dishes.Salad:
- Romaine lettuce, chopped
- Kalamata olives
- Grape tomatoes
- Cucumber, seeded and chopped
- Feta cheese
- Sea salt and fresh cracked pepper, to taste
Lemon Garlic Dressing:
- 6 tablespoons olive oil
- Juice of 1/2 of a lemon
- 1-2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tsp red wine vinegar
- Sea salt and fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
- 1/4 tsp dried oregano
Whisk all ingredients together until thoroughly combined. Taste and re-season if needed. Toss the salad with the dressing and serve. Enjoy.
