Greek Salad with Lemon Dressing image

I love salads and Greek food so decided to create a Greek salad. I based my recipe on a salad from one of my favorite restaurants. My husband and kids were the taste-testers, and now this is one of my most-requested dishes for family get-togethers and holidays.-Patti Leake, Columbia, Missouri
