Greek Cucumber Tomato Salad is bursting with Greek-inspired flavors. A heady mix of dried herbs in a pungent but not sharp dressing coats crunchy cucumbers, sweet tomatoes and piquant Kalamata olives for a wonderful simple salad with complex flavors. Refreshing yet not filling, it is a perfect as lunch for two or as dinner appetizers for four. Greek Cucumber and Tomato Salad is also a great side dish with grilled beef, chicken and especially lamb; its bright, fresh flavors offer great contrast to yet complement grilled meats.
The herbaceous dressing combines with fresh cucumber and tomatoes, red onion and Kalamata olives, all topped with crumbled feta cheese, for a tasty dish. With its jumble of textures and colors, Greek Cucumber Tomato Salad is easy to prepare. Serve this delicious salad with a glass of dry white wine and some fresh, crusty bread and butter for lunch or as an appetizer before Savory Grilled Pork Roast for an elegant dinner.
