Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 large tomatoes
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
sea salt to taste
1 ½ teaspoons dried oregano
1 (4 ounce) container crumbled feta cheese
½ cucumber, sliced
1 small green bell pepper, sliced
¼ cup Greek black olives
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Cut your tomatoes into wedges over the bowl that you're serving the salad in, so that any extra juices land in the bowl. Add onion slices. Liberally season with salt and oregano. Mix and allow tomatoes to sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours, so that the salt releases the tomatoes' juices.
  • Mix in feta cheese, cucumber, bell pepper, and olives just before serving. Stir everything together. Drizzle with olive oil.

I'm allergic to feta cheese. Is there a good substitute that I can use?

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I think it would be better with a more flavorful dressing.

This salad is a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less feta cheese next time.

This salad is a great way to use up all the fresh veggies from my garden. I love the crunch of the cucumbers and the sweetness of the tomatoes. The feta cheese and olives add a nice salty touch.

I've made this salad many times and it's always a hit. The flavors are so well-balanced and it's so easy to make. I like to use a variety of olives, such as Kalamata, green, and black.

This Greek Horiatiki salad is a refreshing and delicious summer dish. The combination of fresh vegetables, feta cheese, and olives is perfect. I especially liked the addition of the capers, which added a nice briny flavor.
