Traditional Greek Salad

This tart and crispy salad complements a variety of entrees, from casseroles and meats to pasta and pizza. "It's one of my favorite dishes," notes Valerie Belley from St. Louis, Missouri.

Yield: 12 servings

1 medium head iceberg lettuce, torn
2 medium cucumbers, sliced
3 small tomatoes, cut into wedges
2 cans (2-1/4 ounces each) sliced ripe olives, drained
2 green onions, chopped
2 packages (4 ounces each) crumbled feta cheese

DRESSING:
1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper

In a large salad bowl, combine the lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, olives, onions and feta cheese. In a small bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients. Drizzle over salad and toss to coat.
