A personal favorite, this Chopped Greek Salad combines Chickpeas, cucumber, grape tomatoes, red onion, kalamata olives and feta cheese tossed in a simple lemon olive oil dressing.
The recipe calls for some chopped romaine but I intentionally left it out, so I could store this easy, healthy chopped Greek salad in the fridge for a couple of days without it getting soggy. You could always toss with some chopped romaine or mixed greens just before serving, if desired.
Recipes Notes
If you’re a Greek salad fan like me, this is a fun twist that holds up for a couple of days in the fridge, making it a great choice to pack for work.
I eat at home most days and love having something quick and easy ready and waiting in the refrigerator. This salad definitely does the trick.
The chickpeas, with their protein and fiber, make it a little more filling too.
According to my calculations, each generous 1-1/2 cups serving has about 152 calories.

I thought this chopped salad was delicious as written, but feel free to experiment and adjust it to suit your tastes. The great thing about salads is that they hardly need a recipe at all. If you wanted to jazz it up a bit, a little oregano, chopped fresh dill, or mint would be nice.
