Happy hump day! Today I’m sharing this yummy and fresh Greek salad topped off with some lemon and rosemary grilled chicken. I have to admit that I’ve been on a bit of a Mediterranean kick lately. I’ll be sharing another recipe with that same regional inspiration next week…maybe this is a sign that I need to take a trip?!
You guys know by now that I love to make a salad as part of my meal prep every week. I love the freshness and you get a lot of volume for not a lot of carbs (most of the time). They’re usually a little higher in fat, but like with this salad, there are definitely some good healthy fats. Anywho, you’ll see how I used this salad as part of my meal prep next Monday!
Have a good rest of the week! Almost there…
