Classic Greek Salad is a perfect easy recipe that works all year round, and is one of my favourite salad recipes.

This works as a light meal on its own or as an accompaniment to homemade pizza, quiche, and many other meals. At only just over 200 cals per portion this salad is a great low calorie option for the new year.

This is an incredibly easy recipe and is ideal all year round, whether it’s after a long day soaking up the sun on the beach or by the pool in summer, or whether you are looking for some healthy but tasty recipes for healthy eating in January.
