This simple yet satisfying salad highlights the delicious combination of creamy avocado, salty feta cheese, and a bright lemony dressing. It’s perfect as a light lunch, a refreshing side dish, or a topping for grilled chicken or fish.
Instructions:
Make the dressing: In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
Assemble the salad: In a large bowl, gently combine the romaine lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, avocado, and feta cheese.
Dress and serve: Drizzle the desired amount of dressing over the salad and toss to combine. Serve immediately for the freshest flavor.
Tips:
For a bolder flavor, use kalamata olives instead of black olives.
Add a handful of chopped fresh dill or mint for an extra layer of freshness.
This salad can be prepped ahead of time. Store the dressing separately and combine all ingredients just before serving to prevent the avocado from browning.
Ingredients:
For the dressing:
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
For the salad:
4 cups chopped romaine lettuce
1 cup chopped cucumber
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
½ cup thinly sliced red onion
1 ripe avocado, diced
½ cup crumbled feta cheese
