Greek-style Tuna Salad

Step 4: Make the Greek Dressing

In a small bowl or jar, whisk together:

  • Olive oil
  • Red wine vinegar or lemon juice
  • Dijon mustard (optional)
  • Minced garlic
  • Dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper

Whisk until emulsified and smooth.


Step 5: Dress the Salad

Drizzle the dressing evenly over the salad mixture. Use salad tongs or clean hands to toss gently until everything is lightly coated.

Add the crumbled feta cheese on top and sprinkle with fresh parsley or oregano for a final touch of aroma and color.


Step 6: Serve and Enjoy

Serve the Greek-style tuna salad immediately in bowls or on a large serving platter. You can enjoy it as is or serve it with:

  • Pita bread or flatbread
  • A warm piece of crusty sourdough
  • A bed of couscous or quinoa for a heartier meal
