Horiatiki (Greek Villager’s Salad)

Tomatoes, chopped
Red onion, sliced
Kalamata olives
Cucumber, sliced
Feta cheese, crumbled
Lemon juice
Red wine vinegar
Extra-virgin olive oil
Oregano, finely chopped
Salt & pepper

Just combine the ingredients and allow to meld for a half hour or so before serving.

This is the traditional Greek salad, horiatiki salata, without lettuce. We recently enjoyed this alongside some grilled lamb loin chops from a local farm. It’s also great with hummos or falafel in a pita. Perhaps some grilled eggplant, too? The important thing is to use ripe, flavorful tomatoes and mild sweet onion.
