Potato, Olives and Feta Cheese Salad
Potato Olives and Feta Cheese Salad
"This potato, olives and feta cheese salad is so simple to prepare and sooo nice! ??? I make this as a main dish sometimes for a quick lunch or dinner but could also be a side dish to any meat or a simple starter. It’s very nice for parties too and it can be made all throughout the year. There is no season really for this, whether is summer served as a side to a nice BBQ or plain winter and put on a Christmas ? dining table, it’s brilliant."
NotesEnjoy this tasty and really quick to prepare potato salad! I have to say this ingredients combination is totally made in heaven and you will agree with me once you make this.
Oh, one more tip - feel free to add a sauce or a vinaigrette which can be a mix of salad creme, mayo, balsamic vinegar and one or two cloves of garlic which you can crush and paste at your best abilities.
I also, sometimes sprinkle some fresh thyme - it goes super well with this whole combo.
Delicious! It is all I can say.
