Easy. Delicious. What could be better?
Ingredients:
Dressing
- 6 tbsp olive oil

- 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 ½ tbsp minced fresh garlic ((1 large clove))
- 1 ½ tbsp finely minced fresh parsley
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- ¾ tsp honey ((or more to taste))
- salt and pepper ((to taste))
Salad
- 4 medium roma tomatoes ((diced))
- 1 medium english cucumber ((peeled and sliced into half moons))
- 1 small green or yellow pepper ((seeds removed and chopped))
- ¾ cup Kalamata or black olives ((drained and sliced))
- 4 oz. crumbled feta cheese ((about 1 cup))
- 1 medium avocado ((not too soft and diced))
Instructions:
-
Add the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl and whisk to blend well. Season with salt and pepper to taste and refrigerate until ready to use.
-
Add tomatoes, cucumber, onion, bell pepper, olives, avocado, and feta to a salad bowl. If you're not serving right away, add the avocados right before you add the dressing.
-
Drizzle dressing over top and gently toss to coat. Adding the dressing within a few minutes of serving is best!
