Refreshing and textural, the classic Greek Salad is a great way to take advantage of summer’s abundant produce.
Easy to scale up or down, it’s as great for a quick weeknight meal as it is for a garden party or potluck. Plus, it’s pretty flexible: add tomatoes when they come into peak season for a bit of added lusciousness, or top with pepitas for more crunch.

What you'll have to do
Step 1
Although not the easiest, emulsifying the vinaigrette is worth it. To do so, add 1 tablespoon + 1 1/2 teaspoons of vinegar and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to a medium size mixing bowl and slowly drizzle in 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons of olive oil while whisking. Once combined, mix in the garlic, lemon zest, a tablespoon of dill, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 6-8 grinds of pepper.

Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, pour about half the dressing over the lettuce. Using your hands (an absolute must!), mix until all the lettuce is covered, add more dressing if needed.

Step 3
Mix in the onion, cucumber, 4oz of feta, and 1/4 cup of olives. Sprinkle the rest of the dill on last or it will get lost. Serve immediately.
