This salad is a healthy and well rounded meal. You have your veggies, your proteins, your dairy, your healthy fats, and add some broken up oven pita bread chips and you have your grains & crunch!
This is a wonderful salad for lunch or a casual dinner with family and friends. If you have this then you will have plenty of room (calorie wise) for dessert 🙂 . You can also add cucumbers, peppers and/or artichoke heart quarters, if you like, to ramp up the Greekness 🙂 !
You will need:
- 1 head romaine lettuce, cleaned and chopped
- 2 small chicken breasts, grilled with salt and pepper and sliced
- 8 slices bacon, cooked crispy, and crumbled
- 1/2 cup sliced red onions
- 10 grape tomatoes, halved
- 4 medium boiled eggs, quartered
- Flesh of 1 avocado, sliced and coated in some lemon juice
- 1/2 to 3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- Olive oil and lemon vinaigrette
Steps:
- Arrange the chopped lettuce on a large platter.

- Drizzle with Greek vinaigrette, enough to your liking, or serve vinaigrette on the side so everyone can choose how much they want.
