Vaguely Greek Salad

Vaguely Greek Salad



I love a good salad. The best part of salads is how forgiving they are. Mix a little of this, a little of that, and you’ve got a masterpiece.



I call this Vaguely Greek Salad for the reason that throwing olives and feta onto lettuce and calling it Greek seems a little presumptuous. But it really is quite good.



Mmmmmmmmmm…

Vaguely Greek Salad

1-2 bags prewashed mixed greens
½ cup black olives (Kalamata also work well if you have some on hand)
1 avocado, sliced
½ to 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes
1 cucumber, sliced
1/3 cup plain feta

Fill a large salad bowl with mixed greens and arrange the various vegetables on top, ending with the feta cheese. *Serve with your favorite dressing.

*I enjoy using balsamic vinaigrette for this purpose.
