This Chopped Greek Salad is classically delicious and easy enough to toss together at the last minute.
Nearly fifteen years ago, Hubby and I island-hopped all over Greece. It still feels like yesterday when our way younger selves sat inches from the sea. Looking way younger. And munching on all the local food.
I think I still have the black sand I collected in a film roll canister. Remember those? Some of you have no clue what I’m talking about.
Anytime I see Greek salad, I think of the hundreds (ok, dozens) of olive-y salads we ate on that trip…
I partly ate Greek salads every single day in Greece because that was the only salad they had.
And partly because summer is all about ripe tomatoes and cucumbers and tangy dressings drizzled over it all.
This Easy Chopped Greek salad is classically delicious and super simple. It can easily be tossed together on any ol’ Tuesday night.
Now I miss those handy little film roll canisters.
Least we still have olives. Enjoy.
