CHEF COMMENTS

Greek salad or horiatiki is a rough country salad of crisp lettuce, cucumber, red onion, green pepper, juicy tomatoes, feta cheese and plump kalamata olives. Serve this delightful combination as a side dish or as a light meal with some crusty bread drizzled with or dipped in a little extra virgin olive oil.
