Notes

  • This recipe tastes great on its own for a quick lunch but is truly outstanding with some good quality protein. I love serving this salad with Garlic Butter Salmon in Foil, Low-Carb Salmon Burgers, or Lemon Roasted Breast Chicken and even with Rosemary Lemon Roasted Chicken Breasts. All these protein recipes are delicious and ready in about 20 minutes. Perfect for a light and healthy dinner meal.
  • I recommend using seedless cucumbers, so you don't have to remove the seeds. The skin is also thinner.
  • You can replace lemon juice for red wine vinegar.
  • Other than parsley, you can also use fresh dill or fresh mint. 
  • To store: Store the Mediterranean salad for up to 4 days in the fridge in an airtight container.
