Feta Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a lightly oiled 6-in. nonstick skillet over medium heat. Saute onion and garlic until tender. Whisk the eggs, egg substitute and 3 tablespoons feta cheese. Add egg mixture to skillet (mixture should set immediately at edges). Cover and cook until nearly set, 4-6 minutes., Sprinkle with tomato and remaining feta cheese. Cover and cook until eggs are completely set, 2-3 minutes longer. Let stand for 5 minutes. Cut in half; serve with avocado and sour cream.

Steps:

• Mix the first 4 ingredients together in a small bowl.
• Add the olive oil in by dribbles, whisking all the while and until it is completely incorporated.
• Mix in oregano and mint.
• Add salt and pepper to taste, if needed (keeping in mind that the feta will probably already be somewhat salty).

Steps:

• In a bowl large enough for tossing salad, add diced chicken breast.
• Chop the romaine and add to salad bowl. Toss in the cucumber, olives and red onion and set aside.
• In a sealable jar or container with a lid, combine red wine vinaigrette, Greek seasoning and crumbled feta cheese. Seal lid and shake vigorously.
• Pour dressing over salad and toss to combine. Divide among chilled salad plates and garnish with extra crumbled feta cheese and sliced tomatoes.

Steps:

• Place the cucumber, peppers, tomatoes and red onion in a large bowl.
• For the vinaigrette, whisk together the garlic, oregano, mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Still whisking, slowly add the olive oil to make an emulsion. Pour the vinaigrette over the vegetables. Add the feta and olives and toss lightly. Set aside for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to blend. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill pan. Brush onion slices with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place onions on grill pan and cook, turning, until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl; drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice. Toss to combine.
• Transfer onion to the bowl of a food processor along with vinegar, basil, thyme, feta, mustard, garlic, shallots, oregano, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 tablespoon pepper; pulse to combine.
• With the processor running, slowly drizzle in 3/4 cup olive oil until dressing is smooth; season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• 1. Prepare an outdoor grill for medium- high cooking over direct heat.
• 2. Meanwhile, make the orzo salad: Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the orzo and cook, stirring often, for about 8 minutes, or until just tender. Drain the orzo in a sieve and set aside.
• 3. In a medium bowl, whisk the vinegar, shallots, and garlic together. Gradually whisk in the olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• 4. In a large bowl, toss the warm orzo, spinach, tomatoes, pine nuts, and basil with the vinaigrette. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside at room temperature.
• 5. To cook the salmon: Coat the salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Oil the cooking grate. Place the salmon on the grill with the top right corner of each fillet facing the 2-o'clock position and cook for 4 minutes, without moving the salmon. (This will help give the salmon a good sear of nice grill marks and help it release from the grate.) Using a thin metal spatula, starting at the corner of each fillet nearest you, flip the fillets over. Grill for about 2 minutes, or until the fish is opaque with a slightly rosy center when flaked in the thickest part with the tip of a small knife. Remove from the grill.
• 6. Mound the salad in the center of a large serving platter or four dinner plates. Sprinkle with the feta cheese. Top with the salmon, sprinkle with the chives, and serve.

Steps:

• Combine red wine vinegar, mustard and garlic in a blender and puree for 30 secs. With blender running, drizzle in the oils; add salt and pepper. Remove to a non-corrosive bowl. Stir in herbs and feta cheese. Best when made 1 day in advance.
