Greek Salad

This salad may make an appearance or two at some summer parties.  Looking forward to the veggies when they are at their best.  I have been eating red peppers this week and they have been really good.  It's also nice to see more than a dozen or so of them at the store and each one looking a little sadder than the one next to it. :(

1 head romaine lettuce, rinsed, dried and choppped
1 red onion, thinly sliced
1 6oz. can pitted black olives (I may sub kalamatas)
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
2 large tomatoes, chopped
1 cucumber, sliced
1 C. crumbled feta cheese
6 tbsp. olive oil
1 tsp dried oregano
1 lemon, juiced
Ground black pepper to taste

In a large salad bowl, combine the romaine, onion, olives, bell peppers, tomatoes, cucumber and cheese.

Whisk together the olive oil, oregano, lemon juice and black pepper.  Pour dressing over salad, toss and serve.
