Makes 7 cups

This traditional-style Greek salad is “stupidly easy” but tastes incredible thanks to juicy tomatoes, crisp cucumber and pepper, briny Kalamata olives, and chunky feta. It’s finished with a simple red wine vinaigrette inspired by Greek restaurant dressings—perfect for summer meals, barbecues, picnics, or as a bright side to grilled meats. Tip: gently toss to avoid squishing the feta (cubes/chunks are most traditional), and sprinkle extra oregano and black pepper right before serving; you can also swap in fresh oregano if you have it.

Salad:
  • 3 cups 3 cups (390 g) cherry tomatoes, chopped
  • 2 cups 2 cups english cucumbers, diced
  • 1 1 green bell pepper, sliced or chopped
  • 4 oz 4 oz (110 g) light or regular feta cheese, cubed or coarsely crumbled
  • 12 cup 12 cup red onion, very thinly sliced
