Equipment
- 1 knife
Ingredients
Base Salad
- 4 cups grape tomatoes halved
- 1/2 medium red onion thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Greek seasoning plus more to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon salt optional, to taste
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper optional, to taste
Optional Add-Ins
- 1 cup mozzarella pearls optional
- 1 1/2 cups cucumber sliced or chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Add halved grape tomatoes and sliced red onion to a large bowl.
- Add cucumber if you want the summer garden version.
- Drizzle in olive oil and red wine vinegar.
- Sprinkle Greek seasoning over the top. Add salt and pepper if you like.
- Toss gently until everything looks glossy and seasoned.
- Fold in mozzarella pearls if using.
- Let the salad sit for 10 minutes, then serve.
Notes
- Make ahead: You can make this 2–4 hours ahead. Keep it covered in the fridge.
- Best flavor tip: Let it sit 10 minutes before serving so the tomatoes soak up the dressing.
- Onion too strong? Slice it extra thin or soak slices in cold water for 5 minutes, then drain.
- Cheese swap: Feta works if you want a more classic Greek flavor.
