I've been making this for years. I'll make a huge salad and just have that for dinner. Great in the summertime when tomatoes are fresh. Measurements are a guess so you may have to adjust. Lately, I've replaced green leaf lettuce with fresh spinach and then added pine nuts which makes a really nice change to this salad. I like my tomatoes at room temperature since it seems to make them more juicy. Make sure to mix around the first 10 ingredients and then add the lettuce or spinach. I hope you enjoy this salad as much as I do. Would love feedback. Ingredients:
1 teaspoon olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice |
1 minced garlic clove |
1 chopped tomato |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
1/3 cup feta |
1/4 cup cucumber, sliced |
1/4 cup red onion, sliced |
1/3 cup green beans (canned or fresh) (optional) |
1/4 cup bacon bits (optional) |
1 1/2 cups green leaf lettuce or 1 1/2 cups fresh spinach |
1/4 cup pine nuts (if using spinach) |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. In a big salad bowl add olive oil, lemon and minced garlic; mix around.
2. Add chopped tomato, pepper and lots of crumbled feta cheese;.
3. Add cucumber and red onion.
4. If using, add green beans and/or bacon bits.
