Recipe

Picture this: crisp cucumber ribbons, juicy tomato chunks, paper-thin red onion rings, and crumbly feta all tossed in a garlicky oregano dressing. That’s Greek Salad—the Mediterranean’s gift to lazy summer lunches, potlucks, and “I need something fresh now” moments.

The magic? Uniform cuts that let every bite burst with balanced flavor. Enter the Geedel Rotary Cheese Grater (your secret salad weapon):

Slicing blade → flawless cucumber rounds

Fine shred blade → whisper-thin red onion that doesn’t overpower

Coarse blade → perfect feta crumbles

No wobbly knives. No soggy layers. Just effortless, restaurant-worthy texture.

Ingredients (Serves 4 as a side)

2 large cucumbers (English or Persian)

3–4 ripe tomatoes (heirloom for color pop)

1 small red onion

1 cup Kalamata olives (pitted)

6 oz feta cheese (block, not crumbles)

¼ cup extra virgin olive oil

2 tbsp red wine vinegar

1 garlic clove (minced or pressed)

1 tsp dried oregano

Salt & freshly cracked black pepper

Optional: bell pepper, fresh parsley

Step-by-Step: Greek Salad in 4 Cranks

1. Slice Veggies Like a Pro

Lock your cheese shredder hand crank with suction base.

Slicing blade: Feed cucumbers → crank for thin, juice-trapping rounds.

Slicing blade: Shred the red onion into strips.

Coarse blade: Crumble feta into fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth pieces.

2. Prep the Rest

Hand-chop tomatoes into chunks, pit olives if needed, and mince garlic.

3. Whisk the Dressing

In a small bowl, combine oil, vinegar, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth.

4. Toss the Rainbow

Combine Geedel-sliced cucumber, onion, feta, plus hand-chopped tomatoes and olives in a large bowl. Pour dressing. Toss gently—uniform cuts mean even coating. Serve with warm pita or as a bed for grilled chicken.

Tips & Twists

Creamy Upgrade – Blend feta with a splash of yogurt for dressing.

Protein Boost – Add grilled chicken or chickpeas.

Spicy Kick – Hand-mince a chili pepper.

Make-Ahead – Slice cucumber/onion/feta with Geedel up to 1 day ahead; dress just before serving.

Low-Carb – Skip tomatoes, double cucumber.
