This traditional Greek salad recipe (horiatiki salata) is super easy and healthy. Made from only 6 ingredients, it’s one of the best healthy salad recipes!
Greek salad highlights the beauty of the Mediterranean diet, where a few simple, fresh ingredients in their most natural form turn into a dazzling salad. Pair it with my homemade Greek salad dressing and you’re good to go!
What I love most about this Greek salad recipe is that it’s veggie-packed and contains no leafy greens. That means all of the ingredients can be prepped ahead of time (as I showed in my summer meal prep), then tossed together when you’re ready to serve. So needless to say, it’s the perfect summer salad recipe that’s always on repeat. Plus, I give a few ideas in the video on how to add protein for a heartier meal!

What are some other classic salad recipes you love, in addition to Greek salad? Let me know your favorites! xo – Lisa
Yum! Greek salad is my absolute favourite. When lettuces prices went up, I started making it like this to cut costs and I really love the chunky texture too! Great video ????
Thank you so very much for these excellent recipes, this one particularly is simple but very tasty as well as being very nutritious. Your presentation is very uplifting for the people.
Thank you for another great recipe! The way you are making the chicken is now how I am making the chicken and my husband loves it so much he wants it for dinner every day! Thank you for teaching me that! ❤❤❤ Xoxo
We keep the olives whole, sometimes with the pit and it’s always Kalamata olives.I love the way you pronounced "Horiatiki".????????☺️
Thank you !
As a Greek, I would say you are totally right we don't use dressing just really good quality Greek Olive oil and maybe a splash of red wine vinegar
Olives are always kept whole ????
As another user said You could smash them (or use a small knife to cut around the pit) right before you need to if you're serving Little ones.
For any bread eaters the best part After eating the salad is the dressing that's left at the bottom of the bowl!
This looks delicious! Just ran to the store so I can try it out. I think I'll add the garbanzo beans ????
Excellent! Thank you ????
I am 75 and i heat everthing you make ????????????????
