Maroulosalata - Greek Lettuce Salad
Report
Maroulosalata is a traditional Greek salad that is a staple in Greek kitchens. It’s such an easy salad to make and is great any time of year because Romaine lettuce doesn’t change much from Summer to Winter. Also, the dill, green onion, and feta cheese are easy to source year-round.This crowd-pleasing salad takes just minutes to toss together and it's easy to double the recipe.

Instructions
- Chop the lettuce - Thinly slice your lettuce and rinse in very cold water. Spin dry in a salad spinner.*
- Make the dressing - In a separate bowl (or in a mason jar), combine olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Whisk or shake up until well blended.
- Assemble the Salad- Add the lettuce, green onion/scallion, dill and feta.*
- Toss - When ready to serve, drizzle the dressing over the salad (I use all of it) and use tongs to thoroughly toss the salad with the dressing. You want to massage the dressing into the salad to soften it a bit and infuse flavor. Garnish with more dill if desired and enjoy!
Notes
- *Salad Spinner Tip: I like to rinse and spin dry all in a salad spinner, which makes the process super fast, but if you do not have a salad spinner, wash the lettuce before cutting and dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel.
- Make Ahead: Cover and store the salad and the dressing separately in the fridge for up to 4 hours. Re-shake the dressing, then drizzle it over the salad just before serving. The salad is best eaten immediately after dressing, but it will stay tasty for 1-2 hours after it's dressed.
- To make it into a complete meal, serve with grilled chicken, shrimp, salmon, or steak on top.
