When you make this chopped salad recipe you can make it ahead of time. While I don’t like to let the salad sit together too long, a few hours can be ideal. This gives the salad time to marinate.

If you love the ingredients in an easy Greek salad but want to use a different dressing you can do that but it does change the taste of the Greek Salad.
