Time for another recipe.

Boston is currently in the midst of a heat wave. We have cracked into the 90's people, and it is HOT! Which means that using anything such as a stove or oven is out of the question. Therefore, dinner needs to be something light & easy to make. I threw this salad together the other day and it definitely hit the spot. I'm thinking of making it again this week because it was that good and quick to make. I've dubbed it my Almost Greek Salad. Enjoy!

Ingredients:
  • 1 1/2 stocks of romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1 can garbanzo beans, rinsed
  • 1 cucumber, peeled & cut into quarters
  • 2 cups chopped tomatoes (if you're using grape sized tomatoes, just cut them in half)
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 cup feta cheese
  • 2 tbsp. EVOO
  • 1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • S&P to taste
Steps:
  • Put beans, veggies, and cheese into a bowl
  • Whisk the EVOO, balsamic vinegar, and S&P in a small bowl
  • Pour dressing over & voila! Easy summer salad!
