      The first time I made this recipe it was a 3 star recipe for me.
      I just changed the directions it a bit and it was a five star recipe!! Here's what I did:
      I mixed the basil, oregano, pepper, vinegar and oil and poured over the onions and let them sit for 1-2 hours. And sprinkled the sugar and salt on the tomatoes and let them sit for a few mins before tossing them into the salad. I mixed everything together (along with the onions, and their oil/vinegar). It was one of the best greek salad i ever had!!
      Thank you kittencal for a fabulous recipe!

      Kittencal, I absolutely appreciate your recipes. You definitely know what you're doing and have good taste and instincts when it comes to food. One thing I'd suggest for your Greek Salad is to let your chopped tomatoes, onions, cukes, and peppers, spend a few hours bathed in the dressing in the fridge, tossing periodically. Then introduce those much more flavourabe veggies to the lettuce, feta, and olives when serving. Thanks for being an ever trusted recipe resource. Cheers,

      This is a nice salad and comes very close to the one I often order in a local restaurant. I added a bit of chicken to ours to make it more of a meal. Dh really liked the dressing.

      As the recipe states, this IS the best Greek Salad on the planet.............. I made this for a crowd and everybody loved it. I wish I could give it more then 5 stars. I did add parmesan and made it the night before. I also allowed it to sit at room temperature before serving. Thanks so much for sharing such a lovely recipe!!!

      I made this today leaving out the Romaine and instead turned it into a pasta salad using tri-color Rotini. It was fabulous and the dressing was out of this world. A definite keeper! I love Greek food and worked in a Greek restaurant for years and the dressing was very authentic and tasted fresh and wonderful! I'm going to make it with the romaine next time.

      I've tried many recipes for Greek salad & this is definitely THE BEST! The only thing that I did differently was to use a combo of romaine & head lettuce. Thanx for sharing!

      I had tried my first Greek Salad in a Pizza Restaurant this year, and was instantly hooked. First thing I did was come look in Zaar for a recipe. Tried this one and it's SUPER!! Thanks for an awesome recipe!

      I made this last minute with things around the house, so I had to make a few substitutions, but it is still excellent! I subbed white for red wine vinegar, and I didn't have oregano. Still a tasty salad that inspires you to make something other than your typical "house" salad.

      Absolutely Brilliant. This is unlike the other dressings that are highly rated on line that use onion powder and too much vinegar. The fresh garlic and fresh basic really do the trick. Too good.

      another great recipe, thanks kittencal!! i did as suggested by another review and I mixed the basil, oregano, pepper, vinegar and oil and poured over the onions and let them sit for 1-2 hours. And sprinkled the sugar and salt on the tomatoes and let them sit for a few mins before tossing them into the salad.

      Wow! KCalKitch always gets my attention if she shows up in my searches and I am totally confident in her recipes and I usually try them first. Once again she has proven SUCCESSFUL!!!! I always read reviews for helpful tips too and I am thankful for both!!! I used dried garlic and onion powder (1.5 tsp) each and halved the dressing (actually used 1/4 c. olive oil, 1 lemon juiced, and 1/2 tsp basil, salt and pepper). I chopped up red pepper, zucchini squash (store didn't have cukes) and grape tomaotes and marinated in dressing for 2 hours. I then added 1 cup of chopped Kalamata olives and 1/4 c. grated parm. Stirred all that up and put a few scoops in a bowl with Romaine lettuce. Oh it was heavenly!!! I actually forgot the feta and it was still DIVINE!!!!! I AM FULL OF SALAD RIGHT NOW!!! BEAUTIFUL BABY!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL THE REVIEWERS AND KCALKITCH!!!!!

      Great salad! I needed to bring a salad to a party so I just looked at the highest rating recipes on food.com and this one fit the bill. I'm so glad I chose it because it was delicious! The dressing was a perfect combination and it tasted great over the veggies. Thanks!

      You are a wonderful cook! I love your recipies and this one is no exception. This one is a keeper, the key is to let the dressing sit for 2 hours or so. Thank you again!

      Seriously once of the best recipes! We have never eaten with the lettuce tho. We just use all the veggies. The dressing is kick butt delish!! Everyone loves it. I have made it almost once a week for the past 2 monthes esp since we have an abundance of fresh garden veggies to use. Thanks for posting.
