Marinating the veggies in Greek Dressing before tossing the greens adds a flavorful touch.

1 head soft, green lettuce, such as Bibb
1 small onion
1 carrot
12 cherry tomatoes
1/2 Cup feta cheese, crumbled

Dressing:

1 TB. GREEK SEASONING
1 TB. water
1/3 Cup olive oil
1/4 Cup red wine vinegar
1 tsp. sugar or honey (optional)

Prepare the dressing by mixing GREEK SEASONING with water, let stand a few minutes, then whisk with oil, vinegar, and sugar, if desired. Thinly slice onion and carrot, and quarter the tomatoes. Toss with 1/4 cup dressing and half the feta cheese crumbles, set aside. Wash and dry the lettuce, rip into bite-sized pieces, divide between two plates. Place half the marinated veggies in the center of each plate, crumble the rest of the cheese over the salads, and top with as much of the remaining dressing as desired.
