Hope you all had a “sparkling” 4th of July!
Now, we enter the “DOG DAYS OF SUMMER”!!!
Roxy & Maggie Mae
With temperatures reaching triple digits, I try to find recipes that are cool and refreshing…..
and being from Texas, we eat A LOT of salsa…….
GREEK SALSA!!
That’s right….I love to make this for gatherings to go along with the traditional salsas!
Greek Salsa
2 T. Balsamic Vinegar
2 T. Olive Oil
3 t. Greek Seasoning
2 Garlic Cloves, minced
1 cup grape (or cherry) tomatoes 1/4rd
1 cucumber peeled and chopped
1/2 cup feta cheese
1/2 cup thinly sliced and chopped red onion
1 can large black olives, chopped
In a small bowl: whisk vinegar, oil, greek seasoning and garlic together….set aside.
In a large bowl: combine cucumber, tomatoes, onion, olives, feta cheese
Pour liquid mixture over vegetables and refrigerate til cold (or if you’re like me, you just start eatin!)
Serve with chips!
This is also delicious over grilled chicken and hamburgers!!!!
Try to stay cool during these “dog days”!!!
Until next time…..
This looks delicious……may have to give it a try! Diane
Angela, this recipe sounds so good! You are right, with this heat you don’t even feel like eating. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Greek Salsa- Never had it but it sounds GOOD!!! xo Diana
