1
Prepare the Romaine
Wash the romaine lettuce thoroughly under cold water. Shake off excess water and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces.
2
Prepare the Grape Tomatoes
Wash the grape tomatoes and cut them in half. Set aside.
3
Prepare the Cucumbers
Peel the cucumber, if desired, and slice it into thin rounds. If the cucumber is large, you may want to halve the slices for easier eating.
4
Prepare the Feta Cheese
Crumble the feta cheese into small pieces. This will allow it to distribute evenly throughout the salad.
5
Prepare the Kalamata Olives
Pit the kalamata olives if they are not already pitted, and slice them in half or leave them whole, depending on your preference.
6
Prepare the Pepperoncini
Drain the pepperoncini if they are in brine and slice them into rings or keep them whole for garnish.
7
Prepare the Bermuda Onion
Peel the Bermuda onion and slice it thinly. If the flavor is too strong, you can soak the slices in cold water for a few minutes to mellow the taste.
8
Assemble the Salad
In a large salad bowl, combine the chopped romaine, halved grape tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, crumbled feta cheese, halved kalamata olives, sliced pepperoncini, and thinly sliced Bermuda onion.
9
Dress the Salad
Drizzle the herb vinaigrette over the salad ingredients. Toss gently to combine, ensuring all ingredients are coated with the dressing.
10
Serve
Serve the salad immediately as a refreshing side dish or light meal. Enjoy your Gus's Greek Salad!
