Greek Salad

So this is a really simple recipe and also very healthy and versatile. A traditional greek salad is made of veggies, dressing, and feta, but no lettuce. I made my version of it. My greek salad has cucumbers, capsicum, red onion, artichoke hears, sun-dried tomatoes, and feta cheese. Usually a greek salad has feta, cucumbers, olives, and fresh tomatoes, but I find tomatoes make the salad very watery, so I used sun-dried, and capsicum. And while I like olives in moderation, they overpower the salad, so I opted out of using them. I instead added artichoke hearts, which was really yummy. The artichokes and tomatoes were marinated so the marinade served as a dressing to help tie the salad together, and I didn't need to add extra dressing. This is a perfect salad to eat by itself, to add to a wrap, to plop on top of spinach (which makes it a greek salad like what you might get in the U.S.), to mix with quinoa, or to stuff in a pepper or tomato. I had some for lunch yesterday, and tonight I think I'm going to try and stuff a tomato with it and broil it. Look for another post to see how that turns out!
