Almost-a-Greek Salad


Here is a fast greek style salad that can be made in a flash!
It is healthy, tangy, creamy, crunchy and has just the right amount of kick ass infused. I like to make a version of this when I get bored of the usual side salad or when we have some fresh feta laying around. This salad is so simple that even an Almost-a-Chilean could make it. (jk)
Thomas & the Almost-a-Chilean


Serves 4-6

-1 english cucumber, peeled ,seeds removed and chopped
-1 red bell pepper, chopped
-1 tomato, chopped, seeds removed
-6 oz cubed goats feta cheese
-4 oz kalamata olives, optional (not shown in photo)
-3 tbsp olive oil
-3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
-1 tbsp fresh oregano finely chopped
-1 tbsp fresh basil finely chopped

Add the above ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Serve chilled. 
This fresh side dish makes a great addition to Salmon or Chicken.
