Description

This Mediterranean salad is a light, vibrant dish full of crunch and bold flavors. Loaded with cucumbers, tomatoes, red onion, olives, and feta, it’s finished with a simple lemon-herb vinaigrette. Perfect as a healthy side or a base for grilled protein.

Ingredients

For the Salad:

  • 1 head Romaine or mixed greens, chopped

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 1 cup cucumber, sliced (Persian or English work best)

  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced

  • 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and halved

  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

  • 1/2 cup pepperoncini slices (optional, for extra tang)

  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (optional)

For the Dressing:

 

  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar

  • Juice of 1/2 lemon

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 1 tsp dried oregano

  • 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard (optional for creaminess)

  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Make the dressing:
    In a small jar or bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, mustard (if using), salt, and pepper until emulsified.

  2. Assemble the salad:
    In a large bowl, combine lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, and feta. Add parsley and pepperoncini if using.

  3. Toss and serve:
    Drizzle dressing over salad just before serving. Toss gently to coat. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Add grilled chicken, chickpeas, or tuna to turn this into a full meal.

  • Swap feta for goat cheese or vegan cheese if needed.

  • Store dressing separately if making ahead to keep the veggies crisp.
