Greek Salad with Chicken Breast | WLS Recipes | FoodCoach.Me

Welcome to my lunch for the past few days. It…is…awesome.

I love the flavors of a Greek style salad. Lemon juice, some apple cider vinegar….feta cheese…black olives. Shoot- is it lunch time again yet??

I get all my awesome Pampered Chef chopping/slicing/dicing tools out on a Sunday and make a big bowl full of this salad. Then I divide it over several containers and have my lunches ready to go for the first few days of the week. I’m so happy with myself when it’s lunch time Tuesday and I’m all set to go!
