“Great flavor! Had some Greek Dressing so used 3 tbsp of that instead of the vinegars and oil! Will try to thinly slice since the diced size is hard to eat with a fork!”
“Great salad – I made it up in the late morning popped it in the fridge. I made the dressing at the same time but kept it separate as one person does not like dressing (imagine!) and served it on the sideI usedfreshGreek oregano in the dressing and it does have a wonderful flavor. The only thing I added were chopped radishes, perhaps not Greek but the garden is overflowing, great added crunch.Thanks Sue for an easy tasty recipe”
“Wonderful wonderful wonderful!I made this as written only using fresh Greek oregano.Definately going into my Favorites of 2012.Thank you for submitting.Made for Summer on the Porch Diabetic Forum.”
“Very good! I used just half of the vinegar amounts, due to hubby’s preference. Otherwise, made as is.”
“Made this as a summer side dish, great flavor and color.I used a red pepper as I prefer them to green, otherwise followed recipe exactly.YUM!I was able to marinade about 2 hours in the fridge before dinner, everyone thought it tasted great.
UPDATE: Since last year this has become my go-to salad that is requested. I frequently add a half a box of farfalle mini bow tie pasta and double the sauce and feta – I get compliments all the time on this fresh summery pasta salad.”
“Delightful! Used orange instead of green bell peppers.”
“Outrageous salad!I made this exactly as posted, except I used some grape tomatoes.Really flavorful.I could eat the whole thing by myself!Will make often.”
“I have made this recipe several times. Everyone loves it. Before I serve it I usually add more of the dressing which I think is a delicious combination of flavors. For something different sometimes I use this for the base of a pasta salad by just adding pasta to it and additional dressing. It is really delicious this way as well.”
“This is a very good salad recipe.I had some small cherry tomatoes I was wanted to use up and this is the recipe I chose.We really liked it.I added a few more olives then called for but otherwise followed the recipe exactly.thank you for sharing this recipe with us.”
“One thing that attracted me to this recipe was that is was low in the oil and that it had so many positive hits…but, I wish I had read the comments first before I made this up!I left out the green bell pepper as I can’t eat them and added more tomatoes.I felt that, as it was, this salad was lacking in something.I added 1 large garlic, chopped and some salt and freshly ground pepper.I don’t think I cared for the red wine vinegar…I would have used all balsamic vinegar. After going back and reading the comments, most people did doctor the salad with garlic and pepper.IF I was to make this one again, I would have cut down on the tomatoes and added a can of black beans and maybe more garlic.This is a good basic recipe, but it does need to be played around with!”
“Amazing! The marinating gives this such a depth of flavour. Thank you for sharing. :)”
“Great salad! Very light and refreshing. It’s also easy on the diet.I am going to serve it on a bed of salad greens to fill me up more! This is only 6 points on Weight Watchers and just a little different. Thanks,Carole in Orlando”
“I just love this salad. I could eat it every single day. Thank you for sharing the recipe.”
“I didn’t have any red wine vinegar, but I had everything else. It still turned out great. It’s even better the next day. Thanks so much for posting this recipe.”
“This was fabulous. I used organic produce and Cuban oregano. It was a hit at our office potluck. I also found whole feta that I cubed rather than the crumbles. People were really receptive to the chunks of cheese. Thanks for sharing!”
“Although this is very similar to the Greek salad I have been making, this will be the one I make from now on.For our tastes, it has the perfect balance of ingredients and dressing (which is delicious, and couldn’t be easier to make).”
“Yummy! I made with cherry tomatoes from the garden and loved the balsamic and wine vinegars mixed together. I used my Recipe #320389 instead of real feta cheese. Thanks Sue! Made for the Zaar Stars game.”
“This is really tasty salad and exactly what I crave in a greek salad. Confession- I hate tomatoes (I know, right?) so I made this with four cucumbers instead of tomatoes. It was really good. I also salted the cucumbers, set them aside for a half hour, and then drained them to remove excess moisture. I know it’s not as good as fresh, but dried oregano does work just fine in this recipe if it’s all that’s on hand. Thanks for the recipe!”
