Greek Salad

A traditional Greek Salad, or "horiatiki," is a celebration of fresh, simple ingredients. Unlike many salads, it doesn’t contain any lettuce. Instead, it’s a rustic and chunky mix of ripe tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, thinly sliced red onion, and salty Kalamata olives. The salad is topped with a generous slab or cubes of feta cheese and dressed simply with high-quality olive oil, a splash of red wine vinegar, and a sprinkle of dried oregano. It’s a wonderfully refreshing and healthy salad that is perfect for a light lunch on a summer day or as a side dish to a heartier Greek meal like moussaka. The combination of flavors and textures is what makes this salad a timeless classic.
