Mixed Mediterranean Salad brings together chunky tomato, cucumber, bell pepper, red onion, olives and fresh herbs, usually with a light olive-oil dressing. It draws on the vegetable salads found around the Mediterranean, though the exact mix varies from kitchen to kitchen.
Serve it as a side with grilled fish or meat, alongside bread and other small dishes, or enjoy a generous bowl for a light lunch. Crisp cucumber, juicy tomato and the briny olives make each bite fresh but flavourful. It is mostly vegetables, with some fibre and a modest amount of energy: 75 calories per 100 g. For an easy meal, add chickpeas or grilled cheese; use the dressing sparingly if you want to keep it lighter.

A mixed Mediterranean salad commonly combines tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, red onion, olives, and fresh herbs with a light olive-oil dressing. There is no single fixed recipe, so ingredients vary; some versions also include feta or leafy greens.
To make a mixed Mediterranean salad, chop the tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, and onion, then toss them with olives and herbs. Add the dressing just before serving so the vegetables stay crisp and do not release as much liquid.
A simple olive-oil and lemon dressing suits a mixed Mediterranean salad. Whisk the oil with lemon juice, salt, and black pepper; add a little red-wine vinegar or dried oregano if you want a sharper, more herbal flavor.
No, a mixed Mediterranean salad is not necessarily the same as a Greek salad. Greek salad typically has a recognizable combination of tomato, cucumber, onion, olives, and feta, while a mixed Mediterranean version can include other vegetables and may omit the cheese.
Yes, you can make a mixed Mediterranean salad without olives. The salad will lose some of its briny flavor, so add a little extra lemon or a few capers if you want a similarly tangy accent.
Keep a mixed Mediterranean salad from getting soggy by storing the dressing separately and adding it shortly before serving. If preparing ahead, keep chopped tomatoes apart from the other vegetables, since they release liquid as they sit.
A mixed Mediterranean salad goes well with grilled fish, chicken, or lamb, and it also complements hummus, flatbread, and roasted vegetables. Its fresh, tangy flavors balance richer mains without needing another heavy side dish.
Yes, chickpeas make a mixed Mediterranean salad more substantial and add a soft, nutty contrast to the crisp vegetables. Drain and rinse canned chickpeas before tossing them in, or use cooled, cooked chickpeas.
You can prepare most of a mixed Mediterranean salad the night before, but keep the dressing separate. Store the chopped vegetables in a covered container in the refrigerator and add the dressing and fresh herbs shortly before serving.
A mixed Mediterranean salad can make a light lunch, but it may not keep you full for long if it contains only vegetables. Add a protein-rich topping such as chickpeas, eggs, or grilled chicken and serve it with bread if desired.
