I love Greek salad. I got this recipe from my sister in law and changed it a bit by removing the feta cheese to suit my dietary needs. Last summer, my mom and I made this almost every day with heirloom tomatoes from her garden.

If I’m honest I never cared much for feta cheese so that’s an easy sacrifice for me! Using the juice and oil makes so much sense to replace the store’s dressings (I never know what’s in those things!)

What if I am allergic to avocado? What can I use instead?
Liliana – thank you for reaching out. You could leave out the avocado, it would be delicious either way!
