Notes
Always use fresh vegetables when preparing this salad. The flavors will be enhanced with fresher produce, while canned or frozen vegetables tend to lack that zest and crunch.Make sure to dice or chop hard vegetables such as onions or bell peppers into small pieces, so they mix well with the rest of the salad.Properly season your Greek chopped salad for maximum flavor. Add salt and pepper at a minimum to bring out all the flavors from each ingredient.
