KNR, p. 242 “The Kerrians’ Greek Salad”

 

It’s summer. It’s hot. It’s time for salads.  🙂

 

There are many delicious Greek dishes, but a Greek salad can be tossed together easily and in our house, it’s a tasty partner to sandwiches. Make the salad big enough, with a lot of feta cheese on top, and it could be a meal all on its own as the temperature climbs above 90 degrees.
