Ingredients

  • 1 head romaine (about 5 cups chopped)
  • 1/2 English cucumber
  • 1 cup grape tomatoes (about 5 oz.)
  • 1 cup roasted beets
  • 1 cup artichoke hearts
  • 1/2 cup red onion
  • 1/3 cup kalamata olives (or more)
  • 1 batch Vegan Greek Dressing
For serving (optional):
  • Chickpeas, vegan feta cheese, dollop of hummus, fresh oregano or parsley, black pepper

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Make the homemade Vegan Greek Dressing. (Or prepare this ahead of time and store covered in the refrigerator until ready.)
  2. Chop romaine and place in a large bowl. Dice cucumber, tomato, beets, and artichoke hearts. Thinly slice red onion. Halve olives. Add all veggies to bowl except beets. (For eye-appeal, I add these after tossing since they tend to stain the other vegetables.)
  3. Toss salad together, then add your beets. Plate salad and spoon desired amount of dressing on top.

Notes

  • Yield: Recipe makes about 10 cups salad. This can serve about 2-3 larger main dish servings, or 4-8 smaller side dish servings, depending on portion sizes.
  • Storing: Store the salad & dressing in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator. (This helps the lettuce stay fresh and crisp.)
