This is a simple yet flavorful salad. Try it the next time you’re serving pizza, pasta, calzones, or just about any dish.
For this recipe you’ll need:
1 head iceberg lettuce, chopped
½ large red onion, sliced
1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled
2 handfuls oil cured Italian olives or Greek Kalamata olives
For the dressing:
¼ cup red wine vinegar
1/3 cup olive oil
2 pinches of salt
15 grinds of fresh black pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon sugar
To make the salad:
In a bowl, combine the lettuce, red onion, feta, and olives.
To make the dressing:
In a bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, salt, pepper, oregano, and sugar. Whisk together. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, whisking as you pour. Do not top the salad with the dressing until you’re ready to serve it.
When you’re ready to serve the salad, add the dressing and toss the salad.
Pepperoncinis would make a nice addition to this salad as well. So would tomatoes. If you’d like to make the salad into a meal, just add diced salami, perhaps some provolone cheese, the peppers, tomatoes, garbanzo beans, and pretty much anything else you can think of, including pepperoni, etc.
