This traditional Greek salad recipe (horiatiki salata) is super easy and healthy. Made from only 6 ingredients, it’s one of the best healthy salad recipes!
Greek salad highlights the beauty of the Mediterranean diet, where a few simple, fresh ingredients in their most natural form turn into a dazzling salad. Pair it with my homemade Greek salad dressing and you’re good to go!
What I love most about this Greek salad recipe is that it’s veggie-packed and contains no leafy greens. That means all of the ingredients can be prepped ahead of time (as I showed in my summer meal prep), then tossed together when you’re ready to serve. So needless to say, it’s the perfect summer salad recipe that’s always on repeat. Plus, I give a few ideas in the video on how to add protein for a heartier meal!

What are some other classic salad recipes you love, in addition to Greek salad? Let me know your favorites! xo – Lisa
Definitely meal prepping this recipe 💕
Thank you Lisa! Greek salad is a fantastic healthy fresh dish that I never order because I can’t stand olives. Maybe it won’t be authentic, but I’m very happy to have this great recipe so I can make my own without olives.
At home, we do not cut the olives, and we only use the Kalamata ones. I am going to try your salad dressing, looks delish!
Caprese,panzanella ,Italian salads so good
I found Greek olive oil and Greek oregano,the flavor is so good,💕
Keto…yup
Yum,great lately lettuce recalls,so this is awesome💕
I now slice bell peppers like this, so easy! Making this tonight along with the Tuscan Chicken, well maybe the herb baked chicken 😊
Im half greek and we do not cut the grape tomatoes and kalamata olives, everything is whole form so its easier to eat, and we do not use cutting boards 😂
Thumbs down here in Canada,
Our cucumbers wilts literally after a few hrs upon cutting and dressing on it so i cant meal prep unless i dont put on the dressing
Done to perfection! Thank you .
looks yummy
Olives look too angular… let’s meet halfway and squash them fresh off the pits 😬🕊️
Greek salad is my favorite. Thank you for the recipe. It looks yummy
I love the no leafy greens! I appreciate that in the cookbook as well 🙂 Can't wait to make this!
I will be making this salad real soon since I love healthy eating!!
Looks yummy
In Bulgaria, we shred the cheese instead of cutting it in cubes. 🙂 You can look up shopska salad. Much love~
I made this today but added quinoa and some fresh parsley! Super delicious and a great way to eat lots of veggies at once.
I love love love Greek salad and eat it almost every evening. My twist is to add also capers to the salad. And: I prefer to always use whole Kalamata olives with the pits. They taste so much better than the pitted ones.
Your recipe for Greek salad is one of the best I’ve ever seen. Thank you.
I made a variation of this for lunch the other day for me & my husband. I had gotten the recipe from a show on PBS all about tomatoes but it didn't have garlic. I wondered if adding it would take away from the authenticity. I'm adding it now! This would be an absolute hit at summertime barbecues.
Ooooh, this reminds me of the salad I used to get from Quiznos, at least once a week! 🤤🤤😋 Now that I cook way more, I will be taking my chicken out of the freezer today.
