Nothing reminds me of being on holiday more than a Greek salad.
Me and my little sister went to Greece twice with our parents when we were teenagers. The first time we went, we stayed in a self-catering apartment. Mum and Dad kept the food simple and stuck to salads or bread and cheese but it was lovely (don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with all inclusive but you end up eating too much just to eat what on offer!!).
When I eat Greek salad it takes me straight back to those precious memories of warm evenings on the balcony feasting on Greek salad with crusty bread. Happy memories.
The ingredients are simple and you can just throw it all together. No skill involved but you get the most fantastic and refreshing salad. My recipe listed below is what a ‘classic’ Greek salad includes.
