TIPS

Here are some tips to help you prepare this Mediterranean Greek salad.

  • Best Cucumber: Use English cucumber for a milder flavour and fewer seeds.
  • Tomato Choice: Cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes add the best sweetness.
  • Feta Alternative: Use crumbled goat cheese for a slightly different taste.
  • Serving Suggestion: Serve with warm pita bread or alongside grilled meats.
  • Extra Flavour: Add a pinch of dried oregano for a classic Greek touch.

VARIATIONS

  • Protein Addition: Add grilled chicken or chickpeas for a heartier salad.
  • Vegan Alternative: Swap feta for plant-based cheese or omit it altogether.
  • Dressing Twist: Replace lemon juice with red wine vinegar for a tangy flavour.
  • Olive Addition: Toss in Kalamata olives for extra Mediterranean flair.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 24 hours.
  • Avoid Freezing: Freezing is not recommended due to the fresh vegetable texture.
  • Dressing Separation: Keep dressing separate until serving to prevent sogginess.
  • Make-Ahead Tip: Prep the vegetables in advance and add the dressing just before serving.
  • Refreshing Leftovers: If stored, allow the salad to sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before eating.
