Greek Zoodle Salad

Greek Zoodle Salad

Zoodles (zucchini noodles) are all the rage and I keep looking for new ways to prepare them. I decided to combine my love of Greek salad with the zoodles and came up with this recipe. A great alternative to high-carb pasta salads!

Prep Time:
15 mins
Additional Time:
10 mins
Total Time:
25 mins
Yield:
4 side salads
Servings:
4

Ingredients

  • 2 zucchini
  • ¼ English cucumber, chopped
  • 10 cherry tomatoes, halved, or more to taste
  • 10 pitted kalamata olives, halved, or more to taste
  • ¼ cup thinly sliced red onion
  • 2 ounces crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Step 1
Cut zucchini into noodle-shaped strands using a spiralizing tool. Place "zoodles" in a large bowl and top with cucumber, tomatoes, olives, red onion, and feta cheese.

Step 2
Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and pepper together in a bowl until dressing is smooth; pour over "zoodle" mixture and toss to coat. Marinate salad in refrigerator for 10 to 15 minutes.

Cook?s Note

You may want to cut the noodles in half to make them more manageable. After putting the zucchini through the spiralizer, pile them on top of a cutting board and cut down the center of the pile with a large knife.You can also spiral-cut the cucumber instead of chopping it.
