Harvest Recipe: Easy Greek Salad

This is the first post in the "Harvest Recipe" collection.  As you may know I have an abundant veggie and herb garden.  As I harvest these edible delights it's important to have a recipe on  hand.  The is no better tasting meal than one made from homegrown produce.

As the title states, this recipe is easy!  I make a few different types of Greek Salad.  This one in particular has no lettuce, just a mix of veggies.
