I like to make this salad with local fresh vegetables. Many of these can now be picked up at one of the local farmers market. Also this salad is easy to pack and take along on a picnic or day hike. If you want some variety try it with some pasta instead of lettuce.

This delicious salad makes enough to serve four

Ingredients:

3 tomatoes

1 red onion

1 cucumber

1 cup Kalamata olives

1/2 pound Feta cheese

1/4 cup olive oil

3 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 teaspoon chopped oregano

1 teaspoon chopped basil

1 head of lettuce - I used hearts of romaine in my version

Directions:

1. Chop tomatoes and cucumber into bite sized chunks

2. Chop up red onion into small pieces

3. Add olives to above in a medium size bowl

4. Chop up cheese into small pieces and add to bowl

5. In a small bowl mix together olive oil, vinegar, oregano and basil

6. Tear lettuce into small pieces and mix into bowl with main ingredients

7. Pour oil mixture over the top and toss

8. Refrigerate until ready to use
