This is a simple easy Greek salad, fresh and done in a flash. All the fresh vegetables are combined with creamy feta cheese. Perfect to serve as a side dish for a Barbecue.
What is an easy Greek salad
This Greek salad is made with fresh summer vegetable and Greek feta cheese, this is why it is called Greek. Usually made with cucumber, tomatoes, red onions and Greek olives but feel free to add any other fresh vegetables if you would like. It is its freshness that makes it perfect for the summer.
The seasoning I like to use it is simply extra virgin olive oil and salt. You don't really need anything else. The light spiciness from the red onion gives the necessary bite to contract the creamy feta cheese and the sweetness of the tomatoes. The cucumber adds extra freshness and the olives stand out from the rest.
