This easy Greek salad recipe is our new favorite summer side dish! Just 7 ingredients plus a simple Greek salad dressing make it refreshing & delicious. I love a good green salad – mixed greens, romaine, and kale are some of my favorite starting points for fresh, healthy meals. But summer is a time when all the vegetables are at their peak. Sweet, juicy tomatoes, snappy bell peppers, and crisp cucumbers abound. This Greek salad recipe showcases these veggies, without any greens to get in the way.

Ingredients

1/3 cup Fresh mint leaves
1/3 cup Pitted Kalamata olives
1/3 cup Thinly sliced red onion
5 oz. Feta cheese
2 cups Halved cherry tomatoes
1 Green bell pepper
1 English cucumber
Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 tsp. Sea salt
1/4 tsp. Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp. Dried oregano, more for sprinkling
1 Garlic clove, minced
3 tbsp. Red wine vinegar
2 tsp. Extra virgin olive oil

Method

01

Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, oregano, mustard, salt, and several grinds of pepper.
02

On a large platter, arrange the cucumber, green pepper, cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, red onions, and olives. Drizzle with the dressing and very gently toss. Sprinkle with a few generous pinches of oregano and top with the mint leaves.
03

Season to taste and serve.
