"Salmon aren't usually seen in the turquoise waters dancing off the coast of Greece, but the succulent, rosy fish still makes a great pairing with classic Greek flavors! Greek Salmon Salad seasons the tender, sweet seafood with herbaceous dill and then places it atop a salad with a classically creamy and zesty dressing. Even the salad itself gets into the Mediterranean feeling with crumbles of sharp feta and fragrant olive over everything! Greek Salmon Salad is a subtle fusion of flavors that is sure to amaze!..."
