Fix this with your barbecued meat and you have a great meal, straight from the grill. This goes great with Grilled Mediterranean Cornish Hens. From Woman's Day magazine, 1999. Ingredients:
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil |
3 tablespoons red wine or 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar |
2 tablespoons lemons or 2 tablespoons lime juice |
1/2 teaspoon oregano |
2 cloves garlic |
2 teaspoons sugar |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves or 2 teaspoons dried mint |
3 medium ripe tomatoes, cut in chunks |
1 large unwaxed cucumber, cut in chunks |
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion |
3 pita breads |
feta cheese (optional) |
Directions:
1. Mix bottled red wine vinaigrette in a bowl or make your own dressing: Whisk oil, vinegar, lemon juice, oregano, cloves, sugar, salt and pepper together in a small bowl.
2. Stir in tomatoes, cucumber and onion.
3. Grill pitas 4 to 6 inches from heat source 2 to 4 minutes, turning once, until lightly toasted.
4. Let cool slightly; tear in bite-size pieces into salad.
5. Toss salad and sprinkle feta cheese over all, if using.
6. Serve and enjoy!
