Traditional Greek Salad
After an amazing family trip to Greece, I really wanted to recreate one of our favorite dishes. This is our take on the Traditional Greek Salad we came home loving. It's loaded with olives, feta cheese, onions, cucumber, and a homemade dressing. It comes together in 20 minutes for an easy lunch or dinner.
