We had company this weekend so I didn't get to dabble in a new recipe. Greek salad is one of my favs for the summer, it's light and filling.
I chose the wide mouth Kerr jars from Target over the Ball jars because they are more uniform in size and if you decided to eat straight from the jar you wouldn't get dressing hands!
You can also see in my pic that there are two salads layered differently.
Ingredients:
Kalmata Olives and Juice
Thin sliced red onion
Diced cucumber
Feta cheese
Chicken
Romaine lettuce
Greek Feta Dressing from Trader Joes OR Newmans Greek
There's no set amount for each ingredient, layer to taste. I will say though that the onions can get a little strong.
Left Salad
Hubby doesn't like olives of any kind. He also works from home so I left his dressing out so he could choose how much or little to use.
Right Salad
For me, the more Greek the better! I chopped up 6 olives, a little onion, 1.5 tbsp olive juice and 2 tbsp feta dressing for the bottom of my jar. Followed by chicken, feta, cucumber and lettuce.
What I'm trying to say here is do what works for your family. There's no wrong way here.
