Greek Tomato Salad
"My German father-in-law loves to vacation in Greece," relates Jerry Lappin of Garden City, Kansas. "After a stay on the sunny beaches of Rhodes, he game me the recipe for this zesty salad, full of fresh tomatoes, red onion, green pepper, ripe olives and feta cheese. I like to serve it for a light lunch with sourdough, French or Italian bread."

Greatly enjoyed this tomato salad. I used Campari tomatoes which were ripe and flavorful. Used Vidalia onion and tri-color bell peppers because that is what I had. DH only enjoyes Castelvetrano green olives so that's what went into the mix. Loved the feta cheese...made a creamy and salty “dressing” when mixed with the seasonings, vinegar, and oil. Skipped the sugar...IMO not needed. Will make this many more times.
Outstanding salad - everyone loved it! Made as is except used Stevia in place of sugar. Couldn't tell any difference and will definitely be making this often throughout the summer as our own garden tomatoes ripen.
This is a family favorite and one requested at church summer picnics. My children fight over the dressing when the vegetables have all been eaten.
Simple and tasty! Worth it.
True Classic Greek Salad!!!
