A Greek salad is full of flavor yet has the simplest ingredients and dressing. It is such a great addition to a weeknight meal. The mixture of textures and colors also makes this a fantastic salad to serve when you’re hosting friends and family. This one stays in heavy rotation at our house! I hope you enjoy it just as much!
