Working Mom Meals....Greek Salad
In case you haven't noticed...Summer is coming. This also means I will have to squeeze myself into a bathing suit and head down to the pool with Jack. Panic mode has set in a bit and I am trying to eat a bit healthier.
This greek salad from Annie's Eats, will not disappoint. It is light, healthy, super quick, and tastes amazing! We had this for a meal along with some toasted garlic pita that I made.
I think this is one of those salads that I will be adding to my weekly rotation of meals.
