The Ultimate Greek Salad image

This is the most delicious salad - fresh and wonderful-tasting. FYI, lettuce can very much be a part of any greek salad - if you want it to. We like lettuce in my family and I often add it. It would not be 'authentic' in a Horiatiki (village) salad, but who cares?

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 head lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces ((I use Romaine)
3 large plum tomatoes, seeded and coarsely chopped
1 English cucumber, peeled and coarsely chopped (the long, thin, almost seedless ones)
1 medium red onion, cut into thin rings and soaked for 10 minutes in a small bowl of ice water to make it less sharp

3/4 cup kalamata olive
3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

  • Season to taste.
  • Drain onion from ice water and pat dry with paper towels.

  • Toss with dressing.
