Hello everyone welcome to mama in the kitchen today i’m going to be showing you how to make my favorite salad which is a greek salad so i’m going to show you the ingredients over here i have a feta chunk which is the same thing as crumbled feta cheese

It’s just in one big chunk so i’m going to be using about one cup of crumbled feta cheese so i’m going to crumble this up and i’ll be using about a cup i’m going to use one cup of grape tomatoes two heads of romaine lettuce i’m going to use half of a medium

Red onion one large cucumber some kalamata olives you can use regular black olives if you don’t have kalamata sometimes i do use regular black olives and then for the dressing i’m going to be using some oregano salt and pepper so about two teaspoons of oregano one teaspoon of

Salt half a teaspoon of black pepper and then i’m going to use two garlic cloves half a cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice and three quarters of a cup of olive oil so let’s get started right so the first thing i’m gonna do is i’m gonna go ahead and make the dressing

So i can just set it aside so i have my lemon juice i’m adding my two garlic cloves three quarters of a cup of olive oil two teaspoons of oregano one teaspoon of salt and half a teaspoon of black pepper Now i’m just gonna mix it until it’s well combined and then just set this aside Now i’m going to go ahead and wash my lettuce so i took apart the leaves so that i can wash each one individually to make sure it’s completely clean so now i’m just cutting the lettuce and then once i cut the lettuce i’ll be cutting my red onion

And also my cucumber and then i’ll show you how i put everything together All right so in my salad bowl here i already have my lettuce and cucumbers i’m adding the red onions grape tomatoes and the kalamata olives I am adding the dressing before adding the dressing you want to make sure that you mix it one more time to make sure the olive oil is not separated and then i also am only using half of the dressing so if you want to make just half of the amount of dressing

From the get go then go ahead and do that but if you would like to have a little extra dressing to have in your fridge for another day then make the full amount so the best part i added some feta cheese and now this greek salad is

Ready to serve i hope you guys enjoyed this video and thank you for watching you
