After eating in this quaint little Greek restaurant many years ago, I discovered that all Greek salads are not created equal. The Greek salad I had was so delicious, I think about it even today. It was filling, it was a meal in itself, and it was absolutely bursting with flavor. I have since made this Greek salad many times. Follow the steps below if you want to enjoy this Greek salad too.

Tips & Warnings
  • Greek salad is not meant to be mixed, but try to combine the foods on the plate with each forkful to appreciate the robust flavor of the combination. Have some crusty Italian bread on the side to soak up any leftover oil and vinegar at the bottom of the dish.
