Chunky Greek Salad
Switch up your regular salad with this classic Greek salad that captures all the flavours and colours of the Mediterranean. Tip: to take some of the bite away from the onions, after you chop them, soak them in a little vinegar or lemon juice.

Tomato | 1 each | 1 each |
Red onion | ½ each | ½ each |

Directions:
- Cut all vegetables into large diced chunks and place in medium sized bowl.
