SPINACH SALAD WITH POTATOES, OLIVES & FETA RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Wash the spinach and put it in a large salad bowl. In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes and cook, stirring once or twice, until they begin to brown, about 5-8 minutes. Reduce heat to low and cook another 4-5 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and cooked through. Add the onion and green beans to the pan; cook 5 minutes. Pour the warm vegetables onto the spinach. Let the salad sit while you make the vinaigrette (the spinach will wilt very slightly.) Add half the tomatoes, feta, olives, and half of the basil vinaigrette. Toss to combine. Serve the salad with the remaining vinaigrette. VINAIGRETTE: Add the vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, garlic, and basil to a blender. Cover and blend on medium speed for about 5 seconds (just to break up the basil). With the blender running, drizzle in the olive oil. Blend until the dressing is smooth, 15-20 seconds. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Heat a non-stick skillet, add olive oil, onion, feta cheese and olives. Saute until onions soften and cheese begins to melt.

• Divide salad between four plates, doing your best to evenly distribute onions and olives.
• Grind black pepper over the top and serve immediately.

FETA OLIVE SALAD

Steps:

• Place the feta in a large shallow bowl, add the onion, garlic, lemon zest, orange zest, cherry tomatoes, if using, green olives, and black olives. Toss lightly but thoroughly.

Arrange the lettuce leaves on 1 large or several individual plates and spoon the feta salad on top. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk olive oil, vinegar and garlic.
