Another Foodie Friday submission from The Erratic Cook, a chef in her own mind from right here in Okotoks.
Greek Salad
What you need:
Tomatoes 2 or more
Cucumber 1 long english
Peppers 2 or more
Red Onion 1/4 or more to your taste
Kalamata Olives or my personal favorite sun dried black olives
Feta cheese; I like lots
Olive oil; 1 tablespoon
Lemon juice; 1 tablespoon
Dried oregano; generous amount
Salt and pepper to taste
What you do:
Chop up the tomatoes and cucumbers first and put them in a bowl.
Add a tablespoon of each olive oil and lemon juice, more or less, and a sprinkling of salt.
Let this mixture sit while you chop up the rest of the ingredients. As the tomato and cucumber sit they create more juices therefore requiring less oil. Smart hey?!
Now toss in the rest of the ingredients and enjoy.
Approx 4 servings.
The amounts of each is up to your personal taste buds.
Enjoy!
Til next time

This one is so simple, and so good, and so good for you. I make this salad a lot, and always have requests for it, so here you go!
