🔪 How to Make Greek Zoodle Salad

To Make the Dressing

Add all of the dressing ingredients to a salad dressing shaker cup.

Shake until well combined and emulsified, then set aside while you make the salad.

To Make the Salad

Wash and dry your zucchini, then spiralize them using a spiralizer.  Then cut the zucchini noodles into small pieces.  This makes it much easier to eat.

Add the zucchini noodles to a large mixing bowl.

Add in the tomatoes, cucumber, orange bell pepper, red onion, Kalamata olives, chopped mint and feta cheese.

Pour the dressing over the top.

Toss to combine and serve.  I like to add more chopped mint and dried oregano over the top.

☑️ Storage Instructions

Fridge: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Freezer: Freezing this salad is not recommended because the zucchini noodles and other veggies will become mushy once thawed.

🍴 What to Serve with Keto Zucchini Salad

This salad would be perfect served on the side of just about any protein that you like, but here are some of my favorites:

• Greek Lemon Chicken
• French Onion Meatloaf
• Stuffed Pork Chops
• Baked Cod with Lemon Beurre Blanc
• Honey Glazed Pork Tenderloin

💡 Tips for Making Zucchini Noodle Salad

• Use firm zucchini: Choose fresh, firm zucchini for the best texture and crispness.

• Let the salad sit: Let the tossed salad sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

• Adjust the salt: Taste the salad before serving and adjust the salt if needed, especially since feta and olives are already salty.

• Serve chilled: If time allows, chill the salad for 20-30 minutes before serving for a refreshing bite.

• Add dressing slowly: Start with half the dressing, toss, and add more as needed to avoid soggy noodles.

🔄 Substitutions and Additions

• Grilled chicken: Add sliced grilled chicken for extra protein.

• Avocado: Mix in diced avocado for extra creaminess.

• Fresh basil: Swap the mint for fresh basil if that’s what you have on hand.

• Red wine vinegar: Substitute red wine vinegar for white wine vinegar for a deeper tang.

• Sun-dried tomatoes: Add a handful of chopped sun-dried tomatoes for a burst of rich, tangy flavor.

• Toasted pine nuts: Sprinkle on toasted pine nuts for a nutty crunch that complements the salad.

• Grilled shrimp: Top with grilled shrimp for a fresh and protein-packed seafood option.

• Crumbled goat cheese: Swap out the feta for crumbled goat cheese for a milder, creamier texture.

• Sliced radishes: Add thinly sliced radishes for a peppery crunch and pop of color.

Can I Make This Salad Ahead of Time?

Yes, but store the dressing separately and toss just before serving to keep it fresh.

How Do I Keep the Zucchini Noodles From Getting Watery?

Pat them dry with a paper towel after spiralizing to remove excess moisture.

Can I Use Pre-spiralized Zucchini Noodles?

Sure, just make sure they are fresh and firm.

What Can I Serve with Greek Zucchini Pasta Salad?

It pairs well with grilled meats like chicken, steak, or shrimp.
