Greek Salad


This has to be my all time favorite salad. Simply ingredients and a simple and tangy dressing to go on it. I love to serve this salad with a flank steak, turkey burgers or even baked chicken. If you love feta then I am sure this will become one of your favorite salads as well.







Greek Salad
adapted from South Beach Cookbook

head of romaine lettuce
1 cucumber, peeled and diced
1 tomato, diced
1 avocado diced
1/2 cup sliced red onion
1/2-3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

Combine all ingredients above and add dressing. I add dressing to each plate so if I have leftovers they aren't soggy the next day!

Dressing
4 Tbsp olive oil
4 Tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp oregano
1 tsp salt

Whisk together the oil, lemon juice, oregano, and salt in a small bowl. Pour over the lettuce mixture and toss until coated. You will have some dressing left over!

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I am always looking for fast, easy and nutritious meals for my busy weeknight meals.  These wraps have become one of our family favorites.  We serve these with a side of wontons or potstickers to complete the meal. The filling can be made ahead of time and reheated if your day is extra busy. Bibb lettuce is our favorite, but feel free to use iceberg or even romaine for this dish. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Chicken Salad Sandwiches with Fruit and Almonds

Chicken salad sandwiches seem to be the go to item for baby and bridal showers.  I wanted to make some for the baby shower, but had a dillema.   While I like the main components in the salad, I really do not like the taste of raw onions and celery.  However, I still wanted some crunch and flavor in the salad.

Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies

The name says it all. These cookies are my (and my husband's) favorite cookies! Not just your average chocolate chip cookies, these babies come out of the oven with a slightly crisp outside while still remaining soft on the inside. Use Ghiradelli Milk Chocolate Chips and you will have achieved chocolate chip cookie perfection!
