Greek Salad with Capers

greek salad with capers

This refreshing Greek salad recipe, inspired by VisitGreece.com, captures the vibrant flavours of the Mediterranean. Traditionally, feta cheese is served in a slab atop the salad, but for better flavour distribution, we’ll cube it in this version. Ideal as an appetizer, this salad serves 2-3 people and pairs beautifully with crusty bread or grilled meats.
