This Chopped Greek Salad with Sweet Parsley Dressing is so fresh and flavorful you’ll want to eat it every day for lunch. Easy to make and great for Sunday meal prepping! {gluten free}
I can’t seem to get enough salads lately. I’m constantly thinking of new ways to incorporate veggies into my diet. Salads don’t have to be boring, in fact, I love a chopped salad with no lettuce. It holds up well in the fridge as long as you don’t top it with dressing.
It transports well to carpool or work and keeps you from stopping to get fast food. This salad came with me to the baseball field last night while I watched the opening game for my son Evan. Nice pitching sweetie!
This sweet parsley dressing was made up on the fly and it is delicious. I can’t wait to drench other salads in it or use it as a marinade for chicken, skirt steak or shrimp. If I made it a bit thicker or added some greek yogurt it would be a great dip for crudites or oven roasted shrimp.
There is a lot of refreshing crunch in this salad so you won’t miss the lettuce. If you prefer it, add some chopped romaine. I like the feta to be crumbled small because I feel like it goes farther and I don’t need a whole lot to get the satisfaction from the cheese. It adds a nice salty flavor. I love the basil and tomato flavored feta and use it in everything. If you can’t find it, just use regular. Enjoy!
