BIG GREEK SALAD Source: Nanette Blanchard Servings: 8
Note from source: Here is my favorite very tasty. Big Greek Salad. We put about 1/2 cup of potato salad hidden down in the middle of the salad. This is the way it's done in Tarpon Springs, FL. a large Greek fishing community. Regardless of how you compose the salad use the dressing. It's fabulous.
FOR THE SALAD: 2 English seedless cucumbers, peeled and sliced 2 tomatoes, cut in wedges 4 scallion, thinly sliced 8 Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese FOR THE DRESSING: 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar 2 tablespoons lemon juice 2 teaspoons oregano salt and pepper 10 leaves Romaine lettuce, torn into bite sized Lemon Wedges for garnish
TO PREPARE THE SALAD: In a serving bowl, mix together cucumbers, tomatoes, scallions, olives, and feta cheese.
TO PREPARE THE DRESSING: In a small bowl whisk together olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice, oregano, salt and white pepper to taste. Pour over vegetables in salad bowl and toss until vegetables are well coated. I like to make it to this point and let it sit for awhile. Then add the Romaine right before serving.
