From Aunt Susan

Serves 2 | 10 mintues Total Time

Ingredients

The Dressing

  • ⅓ cup olive oil

  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice

  • 2 Tablespoons red wine vinegar

  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

  • 1 Tablespoon honey

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • ½ cup green pepper, chopped

  • ½ cup red bell pepper, chopped

  • 1 cup kalamata olives, pitted (I used green olives)

  • 8 oz feta cheese, crumbled (I used fat-free or low-fat and only 3.5oz…still delish)

Instructions

  1. For dressing, combine all ingredients in a large jar and shake until

    emulsified (or whisk, whisk whisk in a bowl).

    • [Emulsified means….”mix it so thoroughly that it becomes an emulsion, of a mixture of two liquids that can’t be completely blended together.” Basically make sure the oil and vinegar are one.]

  2. Combine all of the salad ingredients in a salad bowl and toss with dressing (duh).
