Healthy & Delicious: Greek-Style Chickpea Salad

Our Greek-Style Chickpea Salad relies on cucumber for freshness, onion for zest, and a smattering of feta cheese for tang.

Healthy & Delicious: Greek Orzo Salad

Before actually participating in one, I thought potlucks were kind of old fashioned. I always pictured 1960s-era Knights of Columbus halls, packed with Jello molds, limp crudite, and men in ornamental antler hats. Needless to say, was I off base.

Horiatiki (Greek Salad)

A good Greek salad must be made with peak summer tomatoes, crisp and refreshing cucumbers, briny black olives, and just a bit of onion, here quickly pickled to tame its pungency and add pops of acidity to each slice. Then the ultimate topper: slabs of feta.

Mixed-Herbs Salad With Olives, Tomatoes, and Fresh Mozzarella

A medley of fresh herbs—basil, thyme, parsley, cilantro, and mint—combines with arugula, grape tomatoes, shredded mozzarella, and two types of olives for a bright, intensely flavorful end-of-summer salad.

Lamb Loin Chops with Greek Salad and Yogurt-Lemon Sauce

To stretch this salad into a full meal, I immediately thought of lamb. Though I didn't have time to roast a whole leg of lamb (shame), I did have the eight minutes necessary to cook up these cute little lamb loin chops (which look like miniature t-bone steaks). The yogurt-lemon dressing with feta plays nicely with the lamb, while also adding some creamy and tart notes to the salad.

Mediterranean Flavors: Tzatziki

You only need to follow a recipe once or twice when making tzatziki before the process becomes almost automatic. Thick tangy yogurt; crisp, sweet cucumber; pungent garlic and dill; sunny lemon. The formula, a staging ground for countless dip platters and a condiment for the thousands of gyros dished up daily, is as familiar to us now as salsa and ketchup. And its preparation is about as intuitive—recipes matter less than solid ingredients and a willingness to dip a tasting finger along the way.
