Salad Club III: Who is him? Greek salad

Today's salad is in honour of our former Greek colleague. We miss you, Nikki Papadaki.

Authentic Greek salad does not contain lettuce or chicken. For some reason, our version included cooked chicken, but I did draw the line at lettuce.


Greek salad ingredients

  • 2 packs feta cheese (400g in total)
  • 1 large cucumber, cut into cubes
  • black olives, a large tub
  • 1  red and 1 yellow pepper, cut into cubes
  • 2 punnets cherry tomatoes
  • 1 small red onion, very finely sliced
  • 1bunch mint
  • 1 bunch basil
  • Cooked chicken
 
 
 
 

Greek salad dressing ingredients

  • Olive oil
  • Lemon juice
  • Thyme
  • Salt & pepper
 

Greek salad accompaniments to serve

Hummus, tzatziki, pitta bread. 


This week's salad club got a little out of hand. There were too many members (9) and too many slackers. We almost ran out of food and I had to send out rules. 

This week's star Tosser was Amber, who brought in home made tzatziki. Kate also deserves a special commendation for the salad dressing.
