Try This For Lunch Tomorrow: Delicious Greek Chopped Salad Recipe

Have you ever had a chopped salad before? They are the BEST!

Because everything is chopped up into tiny portions, you get deliciousness in every bite and that makes them a lunch to look forward to.

As an added bonus, because of all that chopped goodness, they require less dressing than most other salads, which is perfect if you have a body transformation goal.

TIP: taking the time to really chop up those ingredients before you put them in the salad bowl pays off!

Feel free to customize this salad recipe to suit your own tastes. Try adding chopped grilled chicken, chopped extra-firm tofu, or stirring in 1 cup of cooked quinoa.

Greek Chopped Salad

(makes 4 servings)

Dressing:

  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp chopped fresh oregano
  • ¼ tsp sea salt
  • ¼ tsp fresh black pepper

Salad:

  • 4 oz roasted red peppers, chopped finely (about the same as 1 red pepper)
  • 4 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 2 small cucumbers, chopped
  • 1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
  • 2 Tbsp pitted kalamata olives, chopped
  • 1 (15-oz.) can salt-free cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
  • ¼ cup feta or goat cheese, crumbled
