It's summer which means salads, salads, salads! This Greek salad has a great combination of salty olives and creamy feta. Don't ruin this incredible salad with store bought dressing. Try using the Basil Champagne Vinaigrette for a tangy, refreshing dressing that complements the salad perfectly.

3 cups spring mix lettuce, washed, chopped
1 cup olives, pitted
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 small red onion, sliced in approximately 2 inch slices
1 cup cucumber, diced
4oz feta cheese

Combine lettuces, olives, tomatoes, onion and cucumber in a large salad bowl. Toss gently to mix all ingredients. Top vegetables liberally with feta cheese.




Basil Champagne Vinaigrette
