Greek salad is a year-round favorite. We lightened up the dressing by cutting out some oil and then added water to “stretch it” a bit. Broth works just as well.

This salad dressing was good but I had to add about 5x the amount of dill to give it a good flavor. Only used 1 Tbsp oil and I increased the amount of oil. Fould it only made about 2 servings worth though.

This is a superb salad! I have used chopped yellow onion instead of scallions before, when I didn't have scallions on hand. This substitution works great. Also I've always used spinach leaves instead of Romaine lettuce, since I didn't have the latter on hand. I have tried this recipe with strips of grilled chicken breast and grilled salmon. Both pair well!
