Ingredients

  • 1 large clove of garlic
  • 2 tablespoons of dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons of Honey
  • 1 teaspoon of dried oregano leaves
  • 1 teaspoon of fresh oregano leaves
  • 2 tablespoon of lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons of white balsamic vinegar
  • 1/3 cup of extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • Pinch of black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons of crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 tablespoon of minced Kalamata olives

Notes

  • Drizzle it on salad or use it as a sauce on grilled or roasted fish, chicken or meat.
  • Add extra garlic and lemon juice to it and use it as a marinade or sauce like this Baked Salmon With Greek Dressing.
  • Add some sour cream or mayonnaise and turn it into a creamy dressing or sauce or spread it on your favorite sandwich like Mediterranean Turkey Sandwich. 
  • Add it to cream cheese and transform it into a dip like this Blue Cheese Sauce or Dip.
  • Toss it with potatoes, roast them and have a lovely side dish.
  • Just spare 3 minutes in the kitchen, double or triple this recipe and keep it in the fridge for a month. Just shake it again every time you use it.
  • A traditional Greek salad is made of lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, olives, and feta cheese.
  • The two dressings have similar but different flavors. Greek dressing is heavy on oregano and has feta cheese actually in the sauce.
  • It is a tangy vinaigrette with garlic and oregano flavors balanced out with honey for sweetness.
  • There really is no substitute for the vinegar. You can play around with different vinegars if you like, but to make a Greek salad dressing, you have to have vinegar and olive oil.
