It is obvious that a Greek menu must have Greek Salad.
This Greek Salad recipe is adapted from Bon Appetit and it makes about 4 1/2 cups. June and Christina made this delightful salad.
The Greek Salad is colourful and is a terrific accompaniment for the Grilled Chicken, Red Onion and Mint Kebabs. The saltiness from the olives and feta cheese gives this salad it’s distinctive taste.
