Greek Salad

Okay, it was SUPPOSED to be in the 60's today but it's still in the 30's and I am not at all happy about having a salad for dinner when it's this cold out.  However, I'm a bit of a stickler for not wasting food so unless I come up with some brilliant idea for how to serve this warm... it's what we're having.

1 bag of salad greens, rinsed & crisp
1 English cucumber, sliced into half moons
4 oz julienne cut sun-dried tomatoes (in oil)
1 C leftover grilled chicken, chopped
1 can black olives, drained

Brianna's New American Vinaigrette (or whatever dressing you prefer)

Toasted/warmed Pita (optional but really nice on a chillier than expected day)

Toss the greens with the dressing, top with the rest of the ingredients and then drizzle with just a bit more dressing. 

Dinner... in 5 minutes flat.  Gotta love that!!


If you have some hummus handy, just cut red/green peppers into sticks, don't use the whole cucumber and cut some into 3" sticks and have that on the side as well.  Yummy!
