Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 small, diced Cucumber
- 8 halved Cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 small, thinly sliced Red onion
- 8 pitted and sliced Kalamata olives
- 0.25 cup, crumbled Feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
- 4 slices Whole grain bread
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 3 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1.5 tablespoons, freshly squeezed Lemon juice
- 1 clove, minced Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Black pepper
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, red onion slices, sliced Kalamata olives, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped parsley. Toss gently to mix.
In a separate small bowl, prepare the creamy lemon dressing. Whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, freshly squeezed lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Add roughly half of the creamy lemon dressing to the vegetable mixture and toss to coat. Reserve the remaining dressing for spreading on the bread.
Toast the whole grain bread slices lightly, if desired, for extra texture and flavor.
Lay one lettuce leaf on each slice of bread. On two of the slices, pile the dressed vegetable mixture evenly.
Spread the reserved creamy lemon dressing onto the other two slices of bread, then place these slices dressing-side down onto the vegetable mixture to form sandwiches.
Slice each sandwich in half and serve immediately. Enjoy your Greek Salad Sandwich with Creamy Lemon Dressing!
