Greek Rainbow Salad

I love flavorful food and this time of year its hard to find good fresh veggies. This salad is so flavorful and even the leftovers are good! It requires a bit of chopping but is so worth it. I had a very hard time finding Greek salad dressing in Nebraska this summer when I was craving this salad, but found a great recipe for making the dressing at home.

Smoked Chicken in Mushrooms

I threw this together last night:

splash of Olive Oil

1/4 Cup onion

handful of shredded smoked chicken (leftover from a purchased smoked chicken – Delicious!)

4 slices sun dried tomatoes, chopped

1 tsp. Italian Seasoning

So easy, tasty and low in carbs. I had a spinach salad with it.
