Equipment
- Large salad bowl

Ingredients
- 2 cups mixed salad greens (like spinach, arugula, or romaine)
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes (cut in half)
- 1/2 cucumber (sliced)
- 1/4 red onion (thinly sliced)
- 1/2 avocado (sliced)
- 1/2 cup cooked chicken (shredded or chopped)
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup olives (optional)
- 2-3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbs red wine vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Hard-boiled egg, bacon bits, or nuts (Optional toppings)
Instructions
- Start by washing and cutting all your veggies. Put the mixed greens in a large salad bowl. Add the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and avocado on top.
- Toss in your cooked chicken for some protein. You can also add hard-boiled eggs or crispy bacon for more flavor!
- Crumble the feta cheese over the salad. This adds a nice creaminess and a burst of flavor.
- Drizzle olive oil and red wine vinegar over everything. Season with salt and pepper. Gently toss the salad to mix everything together and coat it in the dressing.
- You can eat it right away, or let it chill in the fridge for a bit if you prefer it cold. This salad is great by itself or with some keto-friendly bread on the side.
