Greek Salad Ingredients (for 4 people)

• 4 ripe tomatoes
• 1 cucumber
• 1 red onion
• 150 g of feta
• 150 g of olives (if possible from Kalamata)
• 2 tablespoons drained capers (optional)
• 5 tablespoons of olive oil
• Oregano (fresh or dried sprig)
• Salt and pepper

Greek salad recipe

• Wash the tomatoes, cucumber and onion. Cut the cherry tomatoes into quarters. Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise and then cut into thin rounds. Peel the onion and chop it.
• Put everything in a large plate. Add the feta cheese cut into small pieces, the olives and capers.
• Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with oregano, salt and pepper to taste.

Greek salad goes very well with white meats and poultry, but can also be a vegetarian option, to be accompanied, for example, with a large slice of toasted sourdough bread (soaked in olive oil dressing. The olive is a delight).
