Tonight for a light and early dinner, I decided to throw together a Greek salad, one of our new favorite culinary discoveries. As I stood in our teeny kitchen slicing tomatoes and finding the olive oil, I realized that anybody could make this simple dish and enjoy a taste of Athens for themselves.
- Slice one ripe tomato into big chunks and pile onto a plate or bowl
- Cut up a cucumber into chunks and add to said bowl
- Cut up an onion or green pepper or both and add to bowl
- Top with a slice of feta cheese about half the size of a deck of cards
- Sprinkle black pepper and oregano over the top
- Drizzle with a generous amount of good olive oil
All three of us love this salad for its chunkiness and freshness, with the great feta flavor to top it off, and had it for the first time at our favorite Athens restaurant on Friday. Mmmm mmm.
