ann's greek salad

Based on a recipe sent to me by Ann.
serves 4 as a main dish, more if used as a side salad.

















Mix in a bowl:
1-2 packages of greens (based on 10 oz bag)
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1 inch pieces
1 green bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1 inch pieces
1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cucumber, thickly sliced
0.5 red onion, thinly sliced
0.25 pound (4 ounces) feta cheese
0.5 cup kalamata olives
1 tablespoon capers

To prepare the dressing, whisk together in another bowl:
0.25 cup wine vinegar (red or white)
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon fresh dill, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
0.5 teaspoon salt
0.5 teaspoon black pepper
0.33 cup olive oil, drizzled in while whisking the above ingredients.

Use as little or as much dressing as you prefer.  Save leftover dressing for later!
