Cut vegetables into large, rustic pieces for authentic Greek style.

Mix salad

In a large bowl, combine all prepared vegetables. Add Kalamata olives. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with oregano and sea salt. Gently toss to combine.

3 min

Don't overmix to keep vegetables intact.

Add feta and serve

Arrange cubed feta cheese on top of the salad. Do not toss. Serve immediately with crusty bread.

Storage

Fridge: 2 days

Best eaten fresh. If storing, keep feta separate and add just before serving. Do not freeze.

Notes

• Authentic Greek salad contains no lettuce. Use high-quality extra virgin olive oil and Greek feta for best flavor.

• Adjust salt carefully as feta and olives are salty.
