Time 24m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 head lettuce, rinse shake dry and chopped. (Romaine is Best)
1 medium red onion, take off the bad looking stuff and slice thin
2 -3 roma tomatoes, cut into wedges
1 cup feta cheese, crumbled dice smaller
12 ounces Greek peppers (drained Mezzetta Imported Garlic & Dill Peperoncini)
10 ounces pitted kalamata olives
1 cucumber, Sliced and cut again
1/2 cup olive oil (extra virgin first cold pressed)
1 cup red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 teaspoon fresh garlic clove, minced 1-2
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard or 1 teaspoon spicy brown mustard

Steps:

  • Directions: The FINAL PART 1. Add in large serving bowl, all the "Part One" ingredients, cucumbers last. 2. In a side bowl or the feta container, mix together all "Part Two" ingredients. 3. Pour over the salad, cover and chill. You can serve immediately but if you wait a few hours it is much better. Stir the oil from the bottom to the top every so often while chilling. NOTE: It is even better the next day. 4. cover while storing, otherwise your refrigerator will remember for a few days what your made! Use olive oil that is Extra Virgin and has not been open for more than a few weeks. Better get a fresh bottle -- It is worth it -- .
