creative salads.

My friend Mary seriously comes up with the most delicious & simple salads.  I love Caesar & Greek Salads.  I eat a Greek Salad almost every day for lunch.  What are some of your simple go to salads?

For my Greek Salads (make for Nick & I for lunch almost every day)
Mixed Baby Greens
Chick Peas
Kalamata Olives
Feta Cheese
Cherry Tomatoes
Cucumber
Salad Dressing - I make a Red Wine Vinaigrette...I just pour a bit of olive oil, a bit of red wine vinegar, a pinch of oregano & a few twists of pepper.
And...if I have time I cut up some pita into croutons.  I toss them with olive oil, oregano, red pepper flakes & pepper & toast them in the toaster oven.  I think this adds a great little crunch to the salad.

Mary made an awesome salad last night when we had Pizza/Salad.
Spinach
Red Onion
Strawberries
Feta
Brianna's French Vinaigrette (I LOVE this dressing!)
