Greek Feta Salad Recipe
This Greek-inspired salad is all about the majestic block of feta that sits in the middle! Chop straight for the block when serving; this adds to the presentation and makes a great experience to share with your guests or family!
Key ingredients in the Greek feta salad
- Feta cheese block: we keep it whole for an impressive presentation!
- Tomatoes: Tomatoes on the vine are very flavorful, especially during the Summer season. Roma tomatoes have a less acidic flavor profile, and they make another great alternative.
- Cucumber: We don’t peel it completely to keep some crunch and color with the green skin on.
- Olive oil: Extra virgin, cold-pressed for a flavorful dressing.
- Lemon juice: Completes the dressing. Use preferably freshly squeezed juice.
- Salt and pepper
- Italian Seasoning: Or a mix of thyme, rosemary, and oregano.
How to make the feta salad
- Chop the ingredients.
- Lay tomatoes and cucumber on a shallow plate, and season.
- Arrange the whole block of Feta in the center. Drizzle olive oil and lemon juice and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Pro-tips
- Let the salad sit for 15 minutes in the fridge to let the flavor meld and keep everything fresh and crunchy.
- You can add chopped olives and sliced shallots to the salad.
