Ingredients
6 romaine lettuce leaves, torn into 1½-inch pieces
1 medium cucumber, peeled and sliced
1 medium tomato, chopped
½ cup sliced red onion
⅓ cup crumbled feta cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
Directions
Rinse your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before preparing the salad to ensure proper food safety and hygiene.
In a large serving bowl, combine the torn romaine lettuce, sliced cucumber, chopped tomato, sliced red onion, and crumbled feta cheese.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, dried oregano, and salt until well combined and emulsified.
Pour the dressing over the lettuce mixture and toss gently until all ingredients are evenly coated with the vinaigrette.
Serve the salad immediately while the lettuce is crisp and fresh, dividing among 6 bowls or plates as desired.
Comments
Every ingredient is stocked year-round at Charlotte chains—romaine, cucumber, tomato, red onion, and feta are staples at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, and Walmart. At roughly $1.50 per serving (lettuce and tomato are cheap; feta and olive oil drive most of the cost), it's a solid weeknight side. The 10-minute claim is honest: it's truly a chop-and-dress task, though add two minutes if you're not confident with a knife. It reheats poorly (the lettuce wilts), so plan to eat it fresh and same-night, which limits flexibility for families needing leftovers.
