Maroulosalata basically translates to Lettuce Salad in Greek. It is a classic recipe that is made with thinly sliced lettuce, Scallions, fresh herbs like dill, parsley, and mint, and tossed in a bright vinaigrette. Simple yet so delicious and is the perfect complement to any main dish.

MAROULOSALATA (GREEK ROMAINE SALAD)
In Greece, maroulosalata is one of the most common salads. The simple ingredient list shouldn't fool you--it's such a light, crunchy, refreshing salad that is full of flavor. I particularly love it alongside roast or grilled meats. The key to authenticity is to almost shred the romaine lettuce (marouli), rather than tear it into large pieces as we normally do in the States.

GREEK SALAD
While diner-style Greek salads made with chopped romaine, crumbled feta and often grilled chicken have become ubiquitous in American restaurants, a traditional Greek salad, or horiatiki salata, is a simpler affair. An assembled salad of large-diced vegetables with Kalamata olives and sometimes capers, this salad has no greens at all, and the feta is served sliced on top of the salad rather than crumbled and tossed into it. A traditional Greek salad is dressed lightly with olive oil and red wine vinegar; this recipe adds garlic and oregano. To make the salad into a satisfying vegetarian main course, throw in a can of drained and rinsed chickpeas.

This is an extremely simple, yet wonderfully delicious salad that I make when I see freshly made Feta in the grocery store. It was introduced to me as a child, and ever since then...well I am an addict :) I have also made every friend of mine that has tried this one as well. If you like lots of lemon, you like dill, and you love feta, you will love this salad!

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe romaine lettuce. Look for leaves that are crisp and green, with no signs of wilting or bruising.
- If you don't have fresh dill, you can use dried dill instead. Use about 1/4 of the amount of dried dill as you would fresh dill.
- To make the dressing, use a good quality olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice, but a regular olive oil will also work.
- If you don't have lemon juice, you can use white wine vinegar instead. Use the same amount of white wine vinegar as you would lemon juice.
- Serve the salad immediately after it is made. The dressing will wilt the lettuce if it sits for too long.
Conclusion:
This Greek-style romaine salad is a refreshing and flavorful salad that is perfect for a summer meal. The combination of romaine lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, and feta cheese is classic, and the lemon-dill dressing adds a bright and tangy flavor. This salad is also very easy to make, and it can be on the table in just a few minutes.
