I love Greek Salad. It has everything! Freshness from the veg, saltiness from the olives, creaminess from the feta and a punch of flavour from the dressing! It’s so easy and comes together really quickly. It makes a great addition to our menu on pizza night.
I usually get my kids to help by mixing the dressing ingredients then cutting the tomatoes, or even crumbling the feta. They love helping out in the kitchen and it keeps them busy. Turn your Friday night dinner into a family affair, by letting the little ones take over. You may be surprised with the results!
