So old I don’t know where I got it from!!<\/p>\n

Salad<\/h3>\n

Ingredients<\/h3><\/p>\n
    \n
  • English cucumber, thickly sliced then cut in quarters<\/li>\n
  • Cherry tomatoes, cut in half<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 lg orange or yellow pepper, cut in 1\/2 ” chunks<\/li>\n
  • Red onion, coarsley chopped<\/li>\n
  • feta cheese cubed, (I buy Apelina as it is already cubed perfectly)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    <\/div>\n\n

    Optional Ingredients<\/h3><\/p>\n
      \n
    • 1 jar artichoke hearts, drained<\/li>\n
    • Kalmata olives (adds saltiness which I love)<\/li>\n
    • 1\/2 c cooked radiatore pasta (cartwheel pasta)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      <\/div>\n\n

      Dressing<\/h3>\n

      Ingredients<\/h3><\/p>\n
        \n
      • 1\/3 cup olive oil<\/li>\n
      • 1\/2 lemon, juiced<\/li>\n
      • 4-5 garlic cloves, minced<\/li>\n
      • 1 tbsp dry oregano<\/li>\n
      • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard<\/li>\n
      • 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp fresh pepper<\/li>\n
      • 1\/2 tsp dry parsley or fresh, chopped<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        <\/div>\n\n

        Directions<\/h3><\/p>\n
          \n
        • For the Salad ingredients, I like the ratio of 40% cucumber, 40% tomatoes, 20% peppers.\u00a0 Chop until you have the\u00a0 size of bowl you want filled and the mix you prefer.<\/li>\n
        • Add the red onion, enough to your liking<\/li>\n
        • Mix the Dressing (it will be thick) and pour over the salad.\u00a0 Gently mix.\u00a0 It is best to put the dressing on at least 1 hr before serving so flavors mingle.<\/li>\n
        • After the Dressing is on, sprinkle the cubed feta over top.\u00a0 I don’t like to mix the feta in as it tends to disintegrate.\u00a0 Refrigerate until ready to serve.\u00a0 Drain off the excess salad dressing if there are any leftovers as the salad will go soggy overnight.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
