Simple Greek Salad with Homemade Vinaigrette
This Simple Greek Salad with Homemade Vinaigrette is absolutely delicious and perfect for lunch or, add some grilled chicken for a healthy dinner!
I was really craving a greek salad the other day and I wanted to keep it simple and use ingredients I already had in my kitchen.
I used a mix of green leaf lettuce and romaine that I already had on hand, grape tomatoes, chopped red onion (thinly sliced would be better but these had already been chopped), crumbled feta cheese, and pitted kalamata olives.
For the dressing, I whipped up a quick vinaigrette using olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic powder, dried oregano and basil, and salt and pepper. I used dried oregano and basil because that’s what I had on hand but you could also use fresh for a really…..fresh flavor. 🤣

We really eat a lot of salads, especially during the spring/summer but I get tired of the same ole, same ole. This greek salad was a really nice change and so simple to make.
I made enough vinaigrette for one serving but it is easy to adjust the measurements for the serving amount you need.
