Provided by The Mediteranean Dish

Categories     Salad

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 large Roma tomato, diced
1/2 seedless English cucumber (hot house cucumber), diced
1 shallot, sliced
2 avocado, peeled, pitted and diced, and tossed in fresh lemon juice to avoid browning
1/4 cup pitted Kalamata olives, more to your liking
3 to 4 oz halloumi cheese, optional, cut into small cubes
10-15 basil leaves, gathered together and thinly sliced (chiffonade)
Early Harvest Greek extra virgin olive oil (only if using halloumi)
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1/4 cup Early Harvest Greek extra virgin olive oil
1 garlic clove, minced
1 1/2 tsp za'atar spice, more to sprinkle
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare the vinaigrette. Place vinaigrette ingredients in a mason jar, cover tightly and shake until well-combined. Set aside for now (you'll want to give the vinaigrette another shake before using).
  • In a salad bowl, add all the salad ingredients except the halloumi cheese and basil. Pour the vinaigrette and give the salad a gentle toss. Taste and adjust seasoning, add a sprinkle more of za'tar spice. Add the basil, and give one very quick and gentle toss.
  • If adding halloumi cheese. Combine cheese cubes and about 1 to 2 tbsp or so extra virgin olive oil in a small bowl. Toss to coat the cheese with the EVOO. Heat an indoor griddle over medium heat. Add cheese cubes and grill for 2-3 minutes, turning over on all sides, until lightly browned and nice char marks appear (it should be crisp on the outside and nice and melty on the inside).
  • Add the grilled Halloumi to the salad and serve immediately.
