"It's all Greek To Me" Salad

No matter what you're having for dinner, don't you think you should have a salad? And don't you dare just open a Bag-O-Salad - they have that "processed" flavor that can't be covered up even with too much salad dressing. So here's a simple, yet interesting Greek Salad.

This isn't a "real" Greek salad, but has the essence of a Greek Salad.... it does have Olive Oil and Feta Cheese - what about that doesn't scream "Greek?"

Simply slice Romaine Lettuce and layer it in your salad bowl. Next, spoon on your marinated onions and cucumbers - oh wait - we haven't discussed those yet.

A day or so before you are going to make your salad, slice cucumbers and red onions (thinner is better - especially for the onion) and marinade in a mixture of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and what-ever-other-you-want seasonings... to taste. Put in a covered dish in the fridge - and don't forget to stir/shake it around every several hours.

Use the extra marinade as your dressing - it's so tasty.

I also split a handful of cherry tomatoes - and spread those over the salad, then sprinkled with crumbled Feta Cheese.

Now just add the main course - and if you're wondering what to prepare, just review this past year's worth of food blogs!
