Simple traditional Greek Salad with ripe tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, onions, olives and creamy feta cheese.

Traditional Greek Salad Recipe

Medium juicy tomatoes

cucumber

green bell pepper (cored)

Greek pitted Kalamata olives (a handful

kosher salt (a pinch)

extra virgin olive oil

Greek feta cheese

Cut the red onion in half and thinly slice into half moons. (If you want to take the edge off, place the sliced onions in a solution of iced water and vinegar for a bit before adding to the salad. I do this in the video).

Cut the tomatoes into wedges or large chunks (I sliced some into rounds and cut the rest in wedges).

Cut the partially peeled cucumber in half length-wise, then slice into thick halves (at least 1/2&quot; in thickness)

Thinly slice the bell pepper into rings.

Place everything in a large salad dish. Add a good handful of pitted kalamata olives.

Season very lightly with kosher salt (just a pinch) and a bit of dried oregano.

Pour the olive oil and red wine vinegar all over the salad. Give everything a very gentle toss to mix (do NOT over mix, this salad is not meant to be handled too much).

Now add the the feta blocks on top and add a sprinkle more of dried oregano.

Serve with crusty bread.

Easy Greek Salad Recipe

Known as horiatiki, this traditional Greek salad is made with cherry tomatoes, cucumber, kalamata olives, thinly sliced red onion, and feta. The easy dressing is a mixture of red wine vinegar, fresh lemon juice, dried oregano, and extra-virgin olive oil. Simply said, it's the best. Especially considering this Mediterranean side dish only takes 15 minutes to prepare. 

pt. grape or cherry tomatoes, halved

cucumber, thinly sliced into half moons

c. halved kalamata olives

red onion, thinly sliced

c. crumbled feta

tbsp. red wine vinegar

Kosher salt

c. extra-virgin olive oil

I used a mixture of fresh lime juice and bottled lemon juice (it’s what I could find in the fridge) and the dressing was absolutely beautiful.

This is an excellent dressing -simple but flavourful!!

Looks yummy. Greenhornet’s comment was absolutely inappropriate and should not have been on here.

Great salad. Only slight changes like adding yellow bell pepper and juice of whole lemon. We have fifty year old Greek restaurant in our area and this salad is every bit as tasty. I’ll be adding grilled shrimp next time.

Great recipe, the addition of lemon juice to the dressing is good. But I prefer serving with a large piece of feta instead of crumbling it when serving. This looks much better, and you can add oregano and olive oil on top of the feta cheese. Also, the Asian woman in the video is very attractive and makes me extra hungry. We could have each other for dessert.

Great. I used lime juice, added parsley, and a vidella onion. Super easy and good.

Never had a Greek salad but would like to taste one

Very high in flavor and super easy to make!

Love it! Made it & my family loves it! I’m making it for a picnic this weekend as well. Thanks for sharing the recipe! 😋
