A protein-packed, vegetarian salad that will actually keep you full

We love a Greek salad. It is so full of flavor and different textures. We created a slightly different version but added some ingredients to ensure fullness and avoid a post-lunch slump. This salad takes only 5-10 minutes to make and is so easy and refreshing for a busy day.


Ingredients

Use as much or as little of each ingredient as you like


Cucumber

Chickpeas (sub another protein if desired)

Broccoli

Cherry tomatoes

Red onion

Greek yogurt

Olive oil

Garlic powder

Chili flakes

Salt

Pepper

Macadamia nuts

Olives


The broccoli and chickpeas will keep you satiated, and the greek yogurt offers some protein along with the chickpeas—cucumber and macadamia nuts for crunch—and red onion, pepper, and olives for indulgence.


Directions


Start by thoroughly washing the produce.


Chop the cucumber, red onion, and broccoli, then slice the tomatoes and add to a bowl. Add chickpeas to the same bowl and mix it in with the veggies.


For the dressing, combine Greek yogurt, olive oil, garlic powder, chili flakes, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl. Pour the dressing over the veggies and chickpeas and lightly stir into the mixture.


Lastly, add some macadamia nuts and slice some olives to top it off!
