Canadian Dressing | |
|
Ingredients:
3 ripe tomatoes (chop coarsely)1 long English cucumber(Quarter it lengthwise,then cut in short chunks) Do not peel. 1 med red onion (thinly sliced) 1 large pepper (red, orange, yellow or green)Remove seeds and slice thinly 1 cup black olives (leave about 1/2 of the olives whole and slice the rest to top salad) 1/2 cup Feta cheese- (Crumble) Dressing: 1/4 cup red wine vinegar 3/4cup vegetable oil or virgin olive oil 1 tsp. basil 1/2 tsp. oregano 1/2 tsp. salt Just a bit of pepper I like a clove or two of garlic minced in the dressing as well.
Directions:
Combine tomatoes, cucumber, onion, peppers, olives and Feta cheese in salad bowl.Add dressing when ready to serve. Top with olives and more crumbled feta. 5 to 6 servings
Can be a meal in itself. Lots of vitamins and not sure of caloric value here. Just the oil and feta would be the most calories and a lot of the oil remains on your plate.
We now have a Greek grandaughter in our family (by marriage) and she gives this the thumbs up !
