Greek Salad

I have been loving Greek food lately! Here is a great lunch idea that is packed with nutrition. 

The oil in the dressing has Omega 3's, the artichoke hearts are great for blood sugar regulation and this meal is packed with fiber, good fat, and vitamins and minerals. One of the best parts is that this salad is very satisfying and I feel content until dinner.

Here is a little greek salad recipe I just add as much as I want of the ingredients so these are not exact:

-Cucumber

-Kalamata Olives

-Artichoke hearts (I get them in a jar in water, not marinated)

-Feta Cheese
-Tomatoes or bell peppers optional 

Home made Greek salad dressing:

1/3 c red wine vinegar
1 lemon, juiced
2 t dijon mustard
2 c garlic minced
1/2 t Italian seasonings
1/4 t fresh ground pepper
1/4 c flax seed oil
1/4 c olive oil

I double this recipe and put it in a salad dressing bottle to keep in the fridge so I can use it with my daily salad.
