Homemade Greek Salad Dressing

A fragrant, tangy dressing everyone loves! This dressing won't let down any Greek salad. It smells of an olive grove, a lemon orchard, and a Mediterranean meadow. And you can make it - and the salad itself - easily, without ever leaving your apartment in temperate (and far-from-coastal) latitudes.

Step 1:

Prepare the ingredients for the dressing. Fresh herbs are great here, but dried ones are more versatile.
Step 2:

Squeeze out the lemon juice. If the lemon is large, use half.
Step 3:

Add olive oil to the lemon juice. Use unrefined, extra-virgin oil.
Step 4:

Add the herbs to the oil and mix. The homemade Greek salad dressing is ready.
Step 5:

To make a delicious Greek salad, coarsely chop the cucumbers.
Step 6:

Add coarsely chopped bell pepper to the cucumbers.
Step 7:

Cut the tomatoes into large cubes.
Step 8:

Add the pitted olives to the vegetables and mix.
Step 9:

Arrange the vegetables over the lettuce leaves.
Step 10:

Cut the cheese into cubes.
Step 11:

Gently arrange the cheese on the salad. For a vegan salad, use tofu - cube it the same way and marinate it ahead of time in the salad dressing or in soy sauce.
Step 12:

Season the salad with salt and pepper and drizzle it with the homemade dressing.
