Greek Tomato Salad image

"My German father-in-law loves to vacation in Greece," relates Jerry Lappin of Garden City, Kansas. "After a stay on the sunny beaches of Rhodes, he game me the recipe for this zesty salad, full of fresh tomatoes, red onion, green pepper, ripe olives and feta cheese. I like to serve it for a light lunch with sourdough, French or Italian bread."

GREEK TOMATO SALAD

Greek Tomato Salad image

This is a common and colorful side dish for our summer cookouts. It's such a hit that I get complaints if I don't make it. Even the youngsters love this mix of fresh vegetable and light dressing! Regular black olives can be substituted for the Greek olives if you don't care for their flavor.

GREEK SALAD W/FETA AND OLIVES

Greek Salad W/Feta and Olives image

This recipe is from Canadian Living - I love the fact that the dressing is not swimming in olive oil and still packed with flavour. You can cut the vegetables into any size of your preference, but you should try to make sure that the size is approx the same for all vegetables.
