Kittencal's Greek Marinated Tomato, Olive and Feta Salad image

If you love Greek salads you will love this, it's an absolute must made with garden ripe tomatoes! I use the dressing from my recipe#66596 but you may use your own favorite dressing, the cucumber is only optional I like to add some in, plan ahead this salad must be chilled at least 3 hours before serving or up to 6 hours. Serve this salad with crusty bread on the side to dip into the juice, you may also serve the tomatoes with juice on a bed of lettuce.

Mediterranean Tuna, Potato, Olive, and Feta Salad with Garlic Dressing image

Categories     Salad     Olive     Potato     Feta     Tuna     Summer     Gourmet

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 large head garlic
1 1/2 pounds small red potatoes (each about 1 1/2 inches in diameter)
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
3/4 pound haricots verts (thin French green beans) or regular green beans
1 red bell pepper
1/2 English cucumber
10 Kalamata or other brine-cured black olives
two 6-ounce cans solid white tuna in water
1/3 cup crumbled feta (about 2 ounces)

Steps:

  • Separate garlic cloves, leaving skins intact. In a large kettle cover potatoes with salted water by 2 inches and add garlic. Simmer potatoes and garlic until potatoes are just tender, about 20 minutes. Drain potatoes and garlic in a colander and, when cool enough to handle, cut potatoes into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Peel garlic and in a blender puree with water, vinegar, oil, mustard, and salt and pepper to taste. Potatoes may be prepared and dressing made 1 day ahead and chilled separately, covered.
  • Cut beans into 1-inch pieces. Have ready a bowl of ice and cold water. In a large saucepan of boiling salted water cook beans until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes for haricots verts or 6 minutes for regular green beans. In a colander drain beans and plunge into ice water to stop cooking. Pat beans dry. Cut bell pepper into 1/4-inch dice and halve cucumber lengthwise. Seed cucumber and diagonally cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Pit and chop olives. Vegetables and olives may be prepared up to this point 4 hours ahead and chilled separately, covered.
  • Drain tuna and transfer with potatoes, beans, bell pepper, cucumber, and olives to a large bowl.
  • Just before serving, toss salad with dressing and crumble feta on top.

FETA-SCALLION COUSCOUS CAKES WITH TOMATO-OLIVE SALAD RECIPE - (4.9/5)



Feta-Scallion Couscous Cakes With Tomato-Olive Salad Recipe - (4.9/5) image

Provided by asally04

Number Of Ingredients 16

For the cakes
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup uncooked whole-wheat couscous (may substitute quick-cooking couscous; see headnote)
3 scallions
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
3 tablespoons egg substitute (may substitute 1 large egg)
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil
For the salad
2 Campari or small, vine-ripened tomatoes (about 5 ounces total)
6 pitted kalamata olives
Leaves from 6 stems flat-leaf parsley
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 cups herb salad or baby mixed greens

Steps:

  • For the cakes: Bring the water to a boil in a small saucepan over high heat. Stir in the couscous; cover and remove from the heat. Let sit for 5 minutes, then uncover and fluff with a fork. Meanwhile, finely chop the white and light-green parts of the scallions. Stir into the couscous, along with the cheese, egg substitute and pepper (to taste), until well incorporated. The mixture should be moist and a bit loose. Grease a large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking oil spray; place the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the 2 teaspoons of oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the skillet. Divide the couscous mixture into 4 equal portions; they won't hold together well, but they will firm up as they cook. Transfer to the skillet and use a spatula to flatten them to a thickness of 1/2 inch. Coat the tops of the cakes with nonstick cooking oil spray. Cook for 2 minutes or until lightly browned on the bottoms, then carefully turn over the cakes and cook for 2 minutes to brown lightly on the second sides. Turn off the heat. For the salad: Coarsely chop the tomatoes, leaving as much of the seeds behind as possible. Finely chop the olives and parsley; combining them is okay. Transfer those three ingredients to a medium bowl; add the vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon of the oil and the pepper (to taste), stirring to incorporate. Rinse and spin-dry the greens, then place in a bowl. Drizzle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of oil and toss to coat evenly. Divide the greens between individual plates. Top each portion with 2 warm couscous cakes, then spoon the tomato-parsley mixture evenly over the cakes. Serve right away.

RED CABBAGE, FETA & OLIVE SALAD



Red Cabbage, Feta & Olive Salad image

I had to make this salad two days in a row. When I got home from work yesterday, my husband asked me where I'd hidden the leftovers from the night before because he wanted them for lunch. Well, I'd taken them with me for MY lunch -- so I made another batch last night to go with our chili. The night before that I'd served it with shredded chicken Bobbie-Q (see my recipes) over mashed potatoes. There was a bit left over last night -- and I made sure to leave it for my husband. I brought peanut butter & a cucumber for my lunch instead. *sigh* Anyway, if you do have any of this salad left, use it by the next day.

250g feta

Steps:

  • Peel and halve the red union and cut into very fine half-moons and put in a small bowl to steep with the lime juice for 4-6 hours, to bring out the transparent pinkness in the onion and diminish their rasp. Two limes' worth should do it unless they are not juicy and then you need to add more. Remove the rind and pips from the watermelon and cut into approximately 4cm triangular chunks. Cut the feta and tomatoes into similar sized pieces and put them both into a large, wide shallow bowl. Tear off sprigs of parsley so that is it is used like a salad leaf and add to the bowl along with the chopped mint. Tip the now glowingly puce onions, along with their pink juices over the salad in the bowl, add the oil and olives, then using your hands, toss the salad very gently so that the feta and melon don't lose their shape. Add a good grinding of black pepper and taste to see if the dressing needs more lime.
