This is from Rob's sister who got it from her mother-in-law. I don't usually like these salads. The vegetables are too big, the dressing is too bitter. It's just an all around not that pleasant salad.... I got this when she made it at Thanksgiving. I got it as a vegetable requirement (and you always need to try stuff to make sure you don't like it!). I was so surprised! It was really good! It wasn't bitter! It was actually good and the vegetables were yummy and I was so happy to be able enjoyably meet my veggie requirement :D Really easy to make, just a lot of chopping like every other salad :p
2 cloves of garlic minced
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup olive oil
Mix together well
Mix together:
1 sliced cucumber, cut slices in half
1 cubed red pepper
1 cubed yellow pepper
Grape or cherry tomatoes cut in half or a couple of chopped tomatoes (I use one or two cups of tomatoes)
1/2 red onion, slice and then cut up the slices
1/2 lb. feta cheese, cubed (I have also used mozzarella balls)
Olives
When I finished mixing everything together, I wanted more salt and pepper. I also added some garlic parmesan seasoning that I have. it helped a ton.
This is not my specialty recipe. I found this site with great tips and information (especially shocking the onion cause I hate eating raw onions)!
