Geek Out Over This Healthy Greek Salad
Healthy Greek Salad in a matter of a just a few minutes!
Healthy Greek Salad
Ingredients:
Romaine Lettuce
1 cup Cucumber
1/2 cup Tomato
1/2 cup Green Pepper
Red Onion – optional
1 tbsp Feta Cheese
5-8oz of Cooked Shrimp
Dressing:
1/4 cup Olive Oil
3 tbsp Red Wine Vinegar
1 tbsp Oregano
Salt + Pepper
1/2 Juiced Lemon
Wash your romain lettuce and place some full pieces into a bowl. This step is purely for show 🙂 Then I break up a bunch of romaine to fill the large salad bowl. Tip: use your hands to break it instead of cut it with a knife — if you break instead of cut, it will stay greener longer. Then add diced cucumbers, chopped tomatoes, and chopped green pepper. I personally add red onions, but skip these if you don’t like them or if you have a hot date! Add feta and top with shrimp. You can either use shrimp plain, or sautĂ© over low heat with some coconut oil. If you don’t like shrimp, feel free to use your preferred choice of lean protein!
I am a sucker for making my own dressings because so many of the store bought dressings are packed with yucky ingredients. So for this particular dressing I mix olive oil with red wine vinegar (the special secret ingredient!), with oregano. I add pink himalayan rock salt and pepper to taste. Then I squeeze half a lemon over everything at the  very end.
