Perfect as a side dish, this simple raw cabbage salad combines green cabbage, briny feta and olives with a tangy vinegar-herb dressing.

Making this salad is quick and simple. Start by shredding the cabbage: Quarter and core a small to medium green cabbage using a sharp knife. Place the quarters cut-side down on your cutting board for stability, then thinly slice them crosswise and transfer to a large salad bowl. Sprinkle with salt and massage the cabbage gently for a few minutes to tenderize it. Next, mix in the chopped olives, crumbled feta, fresh herbs, olive oil and vinegar, then toss everything well to combine. It’s that easy!
To make the Greek Cabbage Salad, you will need the following ingredients:
To a large bowl, add the shredded cabbage and sprinkle over 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Massage the cabbage with your hands for a few minutes to slightly soften.
Add in ½ teaspoon black pepper, ¼ cup chopped Kalamata olives, ¼ cup chopped Castelvetrano olives, 6 thinly sliced green onions, ½ cup crumbled feta cheese, ⅓ cup fresh chopped dill, ⅓ cup olive oil, 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar, and 1 teaspoon dried oregano and toss well.
Serve and enjoy!
