    This Vegan Greek Salad with Tofu Feta is very similar to what I have eaten at Greek restaurants, except for the tofu feta of course.

    I have even included Greek peperoncinis, but if you don't like anything spicy, you could leave them off.

    Another Greek-inspired recipe is my Vegan Greek Pizza with Tofu Feta. It has all the flavors of a Greek salad on a pizza crust.

    Eat this salad with vegan moussaka or vegan gyros.

    Other hearty salads to try are my Vegan Buffalo Salad and my Vegan Southwest Salad with Chipotle Dressing.

    A tofu salad to try is my Tofu Tarragon Salad Sandwich recipe. My Balsamic Tofu recipe tastes great on salads.

    ❤️ Why You'll Love It

    • It is healthy and hearty.
    • It has all the flavors of a Greek salad from a restaurant but without the dairy.
    • It makes a great main dish for lunch or a side dish.

    🧾 Ingredients

    Ingredients with labels.

    Dressing

    • Red wine vinegar: I used red wine vinegar because it's a classic dressing ingredient. You could also use apple cider vinegar.
    • Oregano: Is a classic Greek salad ingredient.
    • Extra virgin olive oil: I used Extra virgin olive oil because it has a better flavor than regular olive oil. Save the olive oil for cooking.
    • Dijon mustard: Adds a spicy tangy flavor.
    • Garlic: Adds a pungent flavor.
    • Lemon juice: Adds a sour flavor.
    • Salt and pepper: Enhances flavors. I like to use sea salt.

    Salad

    • English cucumber: I like an English cucumber because it is less bitter than other varieties.
    • Kalamata olives: Is traditional in a Greek salad. You could also use green olives or another variety.
    • Red onion: Adds a pungent flavor.
    • Greek peperoncini: Adds a spicy flavor. You could leave them off.
    • Cherry tomatoes: You could also use grape tomatoes or plum tomatoes.
    • Tofu feta: I used a homemade tofu feta recipe. You could also use store-bought vegan feta cheese.
    • Romaine lettuce: You could also use iceberg lettuce or another variety.

    Dressing: Mix all the ingredients for the Greek salad dressing in a bowl. Pour into a mason jar to keep it separate if you're not going to eat all the salad right away.

    Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and add to the bowl. Add the Kalamata olives and tofu feta and toss.

    Serve with a peperoncini or two per serving.

    🥡 Storage

    This Vegan Greek Salad recipe will last 5 days in an airtight container in the fridge. Store the dressing separately.

    🍽 Serving

    This Vegan Greek Salad goes well with my Vegan Gyros recipe and Vegan Tzatziki Sauce. It would also go well with Tofu Stuffed Bell Peppers.

    • ½ cup Kalamata olives
    • ¼ cup sliced red onion
    • 1 cup sliced English cucumber
    • 1 ½ cups  tofu feta
    • Greek peperoncinis
    US Customary - Metric

    Instructions

    • Mix dressing ingredients together in a small bowl.
    • In a large bowl, mix all salad ingredients. Top with dressing, and serve with peperoncinis.

    Notes

    This recipe will last 5 days in an airtight container in the fridge. Store the dressing separately.
    The dressing will thicken in the fridge because of the oil. Leave out at room temperature to liquefy. Because this dressing has garlic, you will want to use it up by the end of the week.

      Greek salad is my favourite!!!! I always wonder what protein I should pair with it so tofu is a great option.

        That's true - protein bonus! I was mainly thinking cheese substitute.

      I'm such a huge Greek food fan! I would eat falafel everyday if I could. There is a restaurant in town that has the best vegan tzatziki. Since I'm a non dairy person (and mostly vegan except for the 2x week chicken) I scout out all of the vegan places around town. This salad looks amazing and I'm totally going to try this this week! I'm looking forward to trying the tofu feta! Thanks for sharing!

      I have been working to incorporate more tofu into my diet and this looks like one I am going to have to give a go soon! I love the addition of feta. Looks so good and fresh for Spring! XO
