Equipment

1 Cutting Board
1 Knife
1 Large Bowl
1 Tongs

Ingredients

9 ounces Romaine Lettuce
5 ounces Grape tomatoes sliced in half
12 slices Cucumber
¼ Red Onion thinly sliced
¼ cup Feta crumbled
3 tablespoons Kalamata Olives
12 Pepperoncini Peppers

Instructions

In a large bowl add the chopped romaine. Then add in the sliced tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion.
Crumble the feta over the top of the salad. Sprinkle on the kalamata olives and place the Pepperoncini's in 2-3 bundled groups to the sides of the bowl. Serve immediately or wrap and refrigerate for up to 1 hour before serving. Serve with your favorite Greek dressing.

Notes

Tomatoes - This recipe calls for 5 ounces of grape tomatoes. That's about half a pint (clam shell) of tomatoes. If you don't have grape or cherry tomatoes on hand you can use 2 vine-ripe tomatoes cut into wedges.
Olives - Kalamata olives are typically what you find in Greek salads. I like to buy them already pitted and sliced. However, you can use whatever variety you prefer and/or have on hand.
Vegetable Additions - I like to add sliced green bell pepper, canned drained chickpeas, beets, potato salad, and some even like to add capers.
Vegan Greek Salad - If you are Vegan, you can make this salad Vegan friendly by removing the feta cheese altogether or replacing with a Vegan feta.
Chicken Greek Salad - Feel free to add grilled chicken to the Greek salad for added protein and a complete meal.
Salad for one - If you are looking to make a Greek Salad for one here is the following quantities; 4-5 ounces of romaine, 6 grape tomatoes cut in half, 4 slices of cucumber, 1 slice of whole red onion broken apart. 1 tablespoon feta, 1 tablespoon kalamata olives, 2-3 peperocini's.
