Maroulosalata (Greek Lettuce Salad)
Maroulosalata is a classic Greek lettuce salad. The deliciously crunchy salad is made with finely chopped romaine lettuce, green onions, fresh dill and mint, dressed in a vibrant lemon and garlic salad dressing.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 hearts romaine lettuce chopped
- 5-6 green onions white and green parts chopped
- 1 small bunch fresh dill chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh mint chopped
- 4 ounces crumbled feta cheese divided
Maroulosalata Dressing
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 large lemon juiced
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 ounces crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl combine the romaine lettuce, green onions, fresh dill, mint and mix well.
- In a blender combine create the dressing by mixing the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, feta cheese, salt and pepper and puree until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning. Pour into a mason jar or salad dressing container.
- Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss.
- Add the feta cheese and lightly toss. Serve or store the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Notes
- If you are making this ahead of time I would leave the dressing off the salad until you are ready to serve as it can get soggy.
