Horiatiki (Greek Village Salad)
Chunky salad of tomatoes, cucumber, onion, bell pepper, olives, and a thick slab of feta with olive oil and oregano.
Why It Works
No lettuce means every bite has flavor. The feta slab breaks apart as you eat, distributing salty creaminess. Quality olive oil and ripe tomatoes are non-negotiable.
