Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Roasted Garlic Bread: In a bowl, thoroughly combine the Roasted Garlic Flavored Mashed Potatoes mix with the softened butter until a smooth, spreadable consistency is achieved. (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

Slice the French bread lengthwise to create two long halves. Generously spread the roasted garlic butter mixture evenly over both cut sides of the bread. (2 minutes)

03

Step
4 mins

Place the bread under a broiler set to medium-high heat. Toast until the butter is melted, bubbly, and the bread edges are golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning! (3-5 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Greek Salad: Drain the sliced red onion from the ice water and gently pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. (2 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, quartered cucumber slices, drained red onion, chopped green pepper, and sliced kalamata olives. (5 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, red wine vinegar, and minced garlic. This is your Greek salad dressing. (2 minutes)

07

Step
1 mins

Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and gently toss to coat all the vegetables evenly. (1 minute)

08

Step
3 mins

To assemble, lay the toasted garlic bread halves on a serving platter. Generously top the garlic bread with the prepared Greek salad. Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the salad. (3 minutes)

09

Step
3 mins

Tzatziki Sauce: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, diced cucumber, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, and finely chopped fresh dill. (3 minutes)

10

Step
1 mins

Stir all ingredients together until well combined. Taste the sauce and season with salt and pepper according to your preference. (1 minute)

Step

Serve the Greek Salad on Roasted Garlic French Bread immediately with a side of the homemade tzatziki sauce for dipping or drizzling.

For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the French bread instead of broiling it. This imparts a smoky char that complements the garlic butter beautifully.
Prepare the Greek salad and tzatziki sauce ahead of time and store them separately in the refrigerator. Assemble just before serving to prevent the bread from becoming soggy.
Feel free to customize the Greek salad with your favorite additions, such as bell peppers or pepperoncini.
If you don't have fresh dill on hand, dried dill can be used in the tzatziki sauce. Use about 1 tablespoon of dried dill as a substitute.

    I appreciated the tip about soaking the red onion in ice water to reduce its sharpness. It made a big difference in the overall flavor of the salad.

  • Quinten Hermistonjerde

    The homemade tzatziki sauce is so much better than store-bought! It's worth the extra effort to make it from scratch.

  • Lea Macgyver

    I made this for a summer BBQ, and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved the unique combination of flavors and textures. I will definitely be making this again.

  • Krista Predovic

    This recipe is a crowd-pleaser! The garlic bread is incredibly flavorful, and the Greek salad is so fresh and vibrant. The tzatziki sauce is the perfect finishing touch.
