🇬🇷❤️ A Taste of Greece in Your Backyard!
Fresh vegetables, creamy feta, Kalamata olives, and golden olive oil—this simple Greek salad brings Mediterranean sunshine to the table. ☀️
Cooking is more than following a recipe. It’s about fresh ingredients, cherished memories, and sharing something delicious with the people we love. ❤️
Today, I’m making one of my favorites: Traditional Greek Salad, or Horiatiki!
🥗 Ingredients
4 ripe tomatoes, cut into wedges
1 large cucumber, chopped
1 fresh green bell pepper, sliced
½ red onion, thinly sliced
A generous handful of Kalamata olives
200–250 g Greek feta cheese
4–5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
A pinch of sea salt
A splash of red w**e vinegar, if desired
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Prepare the vegetables
Cut the vegetables into generous pieces and arrange them on your favorite serving plate.
2. Add the toppings
Add the Kalamata olives, then top with big pieces of creamy Greek feta.
Sprinkle with oregano and sea salt, and drizzle generously with extra virgin olive oil.
3. Let the flavors mingle
My favorite tip? Don’t serve it right away.
Let the salad rest for a few minutes so the tomatoes, olive oil, and oregano can mingle. That short wait makes every bite even more flavorful!
4. Serve and enjoy
Serve with fresh, crusty bread to soak up all those delicious juices. 😋
Simple ingredients, beautiful flavors, and lots of love—that’s my kind of cooking! ❤️
What’s your favorite way to enjoy Greek salad: with crusty bread, grilled meat, or all on its own?
