This post is about Easy Mediterranean Chopped Salad
Are you looking for an easy Mediterranean chopped salad recipe? If you love healthy recipes, this is a great salad to support your healthy eating and weight loss goals, too! My Mediterranean chopped salad recipe is a tasty salad for any occasion. Whether you are hosting a dinner party or simply looking for a new meal prep idea, this should definitely be added to your file of healthy salad recipes. Just mix it up in a large bowl and let those flavors soak in - this recipe could not be any easier!
My recipe takes simple fresh produce you can find year round, but feel free to get creative! You can serve this chopped salad as is, or over a bed of chopped romaine lettuce. You could also add grilled chicken, a little bit of feta cheese or fresh mozzarella. I have found eating big salads the best way to stick with healthy eating without getting bored!
Suggested ingredients
Cucumber
Fresh tomatoes
Onion
Black Olives
Fresh herbs
For the dressing
As you can see, I like to use a pre-made mix, but you can easily make your own with some kosher salt, ground black pepper, lemon juice and olive oil- this will still be a tasty salad.
How to store leftovers
If you're not eating your chopped salad right away, store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Make sure to keep the dressed salad separate from any crisp lettuce greens until immediately before serving. I love having chopped salad on hand for a light dinner side dish or healthy lunch recipes. The next time you're in the grocery store or farmer's market make sure to grab these simple ingredients.
