This maroulosalata is an easy, flavorful salad that can be made in only 5-minutes and served up all summer long.

Maroulosalata is a salad I’ve grown up on. My mom always made/makes this salad and it’s such a popular Greek dish that’s super simple to make (but tastes like a ton of effort went into it). Maroulosalata is a salad made with lettuce, cucumber, and fresh herbs. Combined with a super simple “dressing”. This seriously has got to be one of the easiest (but flavorful) salads you can make this summer.

This salad is best enjoyed on the day it's made; if you want to meal prep it, store the lettuce, onion, dill together and the olive oil, vinegar and salt in a small container. Drizzle the olive oil, vinegar and salt over the salad ingredients, toss and serve when ready.

This salad is fabulous. As it is planting time, I will be growing a big pot of dill on the deck to make this all summer long. I used lemon and it paired so well with you Crispy Chicken Thighs & Feta Gnocchi Bake.
