This fresh, simple salad highlights popular Greek ingredients such as tomatoes, cucumber, pita bread, and mint, all coated in a pleasantly tart lemon juice dressing. Serve immediately to prevent the bread from becoming too soggy. Ingredients:

1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
3 cups chopped tomato (about 3 medium) |
1 1/4 cups chopped seeded peeled cucumber |
1/2 cup sliced green onions (about 3) |
1/3 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley |
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro |
2 (6-inch) pitas, toasted and torn into bite-sized pieces |
Directions:
1. Combine first 5 ingredients in a large bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Add tomato and remaining ingredients; toss gently to coat. Serve immediately.
