Greek Salad is the most delicious salad, fresh, healthy and wonderful in taste. This Greek salad recipe consist of tomatoes, cucumber, onion, olives, feta, oregano and gets a crunchy boost from lettuce. This healthy Greek Salad is so easy to whip up, and it’s absolutely amazing when tossed in a light and refreshing lemon-olive oil dressing! It is easy, healthy, colorful, and completely delicious especially when drizzled with lemony dressing. You can include this healthy dish into your lunch or dinner as side, it just perfect or you can just stuff it into your sandwich or wrap it with taco/tortilla.
After eating lava cake and had lots of calories, finally today I decided to go with clean eating low calories food and you know all, well salad is the best option for that, but plain salad, eating like animal……ewiee no way…so I made lemony dressing, it gives your salad taste just awesome tangy, and little peppery flavor just love it.
