  • for the Perfect Greek Salad
  • Swap the dressing! This salad is also fantastic with a creamy tzatziki or cucumber sauce instead of a vinaigrette.
  • For the best flavor, let the red onion slices soak in a small bowl of cold water for 10 minutes before adding them to the salad. This mellows their sharp bite.
  • Make it ahead by prepping all the vegetables and storing them in an airtight container in the fridge. Keep the dressing separate and toss just before serving to prevent sogginess.
