EASY GREEK PASTA SALAD
16 ounces short pasta (penne, bowtie, fusilli, etc)
1 English cucumber diced
1-pint grape tomatoes halved
1 bell pepper diced (yellow or orange)
1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives sliced
1/2 cup red onion diced
3 ounces of feta cheese crumbled
Greek Salad Dressing
1 large clove of garlic crushed
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Cook pasta al dente according to package directions. Rinse under cold water and transfer to a large bowl.
Add the cucumber, tomatoes, bell pepper, Kalamata olives, red onion, and feta cheese.
Combine garlic, oregano, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, and Dijon mustard in a small jar. Slowly whisk in the extra virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper. If using a mason jar, you can simply put the lid on and shake the jar until well combined.
Drizzle the dressing over the top and toss well. Chill for 2-3 hours before serving and enjoy!
NOTES
This salad is lightly dressed. If you like extra dressing on your pasta salad, feel free to 1.5x the dressing.
Store the leftover salad in an airtight storage container in the refrigerator for about 4 to 5 days. Before serving again, give it a good stir and taste + season again as needed. This salad is best served chilled.

Traditional Greek Salad Recipe a.k.a. the Horiatiki Salata
This classic Greek Salad Recipe is loaded up with fresh tomatoes, vegetables, feta cheese, and herbs in a light red wine vinaigrette.
A Greek salad, which is better known as a Horiatiki Salata in Greece, is a classic vegetable salad that is mixed with herbs, cheese, and a light vinaigrette. The tradition of eating a salad before the main meal was actually founded in ancient Greece. They believed that consuming fresh raw vegetables before a big main meal, that would aid in digestion.
Ingredients for this recipe:
• 5 cored vine ripe tomatoes cut into bitesize pieces
• 1 cucumber sliced into half-moons
• 1 seeded and julienne green bell pepper
• ½ peeled and julienne red onion
• ¼ cup capers
• 10 to 12 pitted kalamata olives
• 10 to 12 pitted green Greek olives
• 8-ounce block of feta cheese broken into bitesize pieces
• ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 1 ½ teaspoons dry oregano
• salt and pepper to taste
Serves 8
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 0
Procedures:
1. Rinse and prepare all of the vegetables accordingly.
2. Add the tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and red onions to a large platter or bowl.
3. Evenly place on the capers, olives, and feta cheese.
4. Drizzle on the olive oil and red wine vinegar.
5. Sprinkle the oregano, salt, and pepper over top, and serve.
Chef Notes:
Make-Ahead: Keep the dressing separate, but you can make this up to 1 day ahead of time. I would also advise keeping the feta cheese separate until ready to serve. Don’t season it either until ready to serve.
How To Store: If you can keep the seasoning and vinaigrette separate and cover and keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Use pitted olives to make it easier to consume.
It is more classic to use a block of feta cheese rather than crumbles.
Any tomato will work for this recipe.

Greek Salad | Healthy & Nutritious Salad Recipe | Divine Taste With Anushruti
Watch how to make Greek Salad, an quick and easy to make salad recipe by Anushruti.
One of the most requested salad recipe is here. We present to you healthy, colorful, nutritious and delicious Greek Salad recipe. So watch and learn how to make Greek Salad with Anushruti only on Rajshri Food.
Ingredients:
For the salad
1 bunch of Romaine/Cos lettuce
200gm feta cheese cut into cubes
1 medium sized Cucumber sliced into rounds
15 to 20 Cherry Tomatoes
10 to 12 Kalamata olives
1 yellow Bell Pepper/Capsicum
1 green Bell Pepper/Capsicum
For the dressing
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp lime juice
1 tsp dried oregano
½ tsp freshly ground black pepper or to taste
¾ tsp salt or to taste (adjust according to the saltiness of the feta)
Method:
Mix all the ingredients for the salad dressing in a bowl. Prepare the salad ingredients. After washing the lettuce, keep them immersed in ice water to preserve crispness. In a large bowl assemble all the ingredients for the salad and dress with the salad dressing.
* When I’m in the mood for fewer calories I reduce the oil from 2 tbsp to 1 tbsp. Less of olive oil flavour, but not bad at all!
* For a vegan version, replace the feta with any vegan cheese.
Note: You can adjust the lime juice in the dressing according to taste. Substitute any black olives, if you can’t find kalamata olives. I also substitute the Indian cheese paneer which is quite similar to the salty feta, when I can’t find good quality feta cheese.
