Serbian Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2/3 cup olive oil
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
5 garlic cloves, quartered
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
6 tomatoes, diced
2 green peppers, seeds removed and diced
2 -3 green onions, trimmed and chopped, divided
1 cucumber, peeled, seeds removed and sliced thin
1 romaine lettuce, baby lettuce leaves, if you can find them
1 -2 ounce feta cheese, crumbled

Preparation

Combine first 8 ingredients for dressing. (I put them all in a canning jar and shake to combine.) Refrigerate overnight.
At least an hour before serving, remove garlic from dressing and discard.
Combine tomatoes, peppers, about 2/3s onion and cucumber with dressing. Let the flavors meld for about an hour, more if you like.
Line platter with Romaine; top with veggies. Sprinkle feta and remaining onions on top.
