ingredients used to make the greek feta salad

Tips for Making this 15-Minute Greek Feta Salad:

  1. Feta. Buy the feta in blocks and keep in the fridge until you need to slice in half. This way the feta will remain cold and easier to cut. 
  2. Olives. I have a minor obsession with olives so I could add kind. However, use what tastes good to you!! 
  3. Cucumbers. I find that the small cucumbers used for pickling are better suited for this fresh salad recipe. If you have a regular cucumber I would peel the waxy skin off. 

Frequently Asked Questions: 

If you aren’t a fan of feta, what other kind of cheese do you recommend?

Feta can be a tough, tart cheese to like sometimes so if that isn’t your jam you could try goat cheese or even whipped ricotta. 

Can I make this salad ahead of time? 

You can prep all the ingredients ahead of time including the dressing. However, I would assemble 5 minutes prior to consuming so all the ingredients taste fresh. 

Can I mix up the veggies that are used in this salad? 

Yes! You can add whatever kind of veggies you’d like to this salad. 

Can I add a protein to this salad to make it an entree? 

Absolutely. Grilled chicken or fish would be a lovely addition to this salad.
