Author: Jackie Alpers

Chunky vegetables and feta tossed in a light lemon anchovy vinaigrette. I am going to make a bold statement and say that you can indeed win friends with salad in stark contrast to the clip I've posted below. Here's a good one to start with.

Ingredients

1 cup cherry tomatoes
1 cup roughly chopped cucumber
½ cup feta cheese cubed or chunks
2 tablespoons seeded Greek olives chopped
2 tablespoons chopped pepperoncini

For the dressing

1 tablespoon good quality olive oil
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon anchovy paste
juice from 1/2 lemon about 2 tablespoons
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Place all of the vegetables and feta in a large bowl. Whisk together the dressing ingredients, pour top of salad and mix well with a rubber spatula. Transfer to a serving plate and enjoy. Serves one as a meal or two as a side salad.
