Fresh Greek Chopped Salad

October 24, 2014

This Greek chopped salad is really heavy on the cucumbers. Simply because I love them so! If you would rather your Greek salad with a little lettuce, some crisp chopped Romaine would be a great addition.

for the salad:

3 c. halved cherry or grape tomatoes (quarter the tomatoes if they are larger)
2 large English cucumbers or 8 smaller Persian cucumbers, chopped
1 large green bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 large red bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 c. diced red onion
1 c. pitted and roughly chopped Kalamata olives
1/2 c. chopped fresh mint
1/3 c. chopped fresh parsley
1/3 c. chopped fresh oregano
1 8-oz. block of feta, diced (or use crumbled feta)

for the salad dressing:

1/2 c. freshly squeezed lemon juice + zest of 1 lemon
1/4 c. white balsamic vinegar
1/4 c. extra-virgin olive oil
6 medium garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp. Dijon mustard
1/4 tsp. kosher salt, plus additional sprinkled over the top before serving
1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper, plus additional sprinkled over the top before serving

for the salad: In a large bowl, combine all salad ingredients, except for the feta cheese. Toss gently to combine. for the salad dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together all salad dressing...
