Jackie - Greek salad & Absolutely Fabulous Greek Salad Dressing recipe

[Guest guest]

Jackie, my favorite is a Greek salad, too, but I usually make it with at

least 1/2 baby spinach. For just me, I use 1/2 baby spinach, 1/2 lettuce,

1-2 roma tomatoes, sliced, 1/4 of a small red onion, cucumber slices,

quartered, kalamata olives, lots of feta, and a homemade dressing, the

recipe for which I got at allrecipes.com.

Here's the Greek salad dressing recipe (probably not authentic but it's

wonderful anyway!) This stuff keeps for a really long time and you don't

have to refrigerate it, so it's easy to take to work. I use an empty salad

dressing bottle and keep it on my kitchen counter.

 

Absolutely Fabulous Greek Dressing

 

1 c olive oil

2 1/2 tsp garlic powder

2 1/2 tsp dried oregano

2 1/2 tsp dried basil

1 tsp black pepper (I use only 1/2 tsp, as I don't care for black pepper,

but it adds a little bite)

2 tsp salt

2 tsp onion powder

2 tsp dijon mustard

1 c red wine vinegar

 

Mix together olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, basil, pepper, salt, onion

powder, mustard. Pour in vinegar and mix vigorously until well-blended.

Store tightly covered at room temperature.
