Vegetarian keto Greek salad
Greek salad or horiatiki [in Greek] is the "queen" of salads in the Greek cuisine and is served with almost every dish. It is usually served as a side salad, but also it may be served as a main dish for lunch or dinner. It is prepared with fresh tomatoes, onions, olives, olive oil, feta cheese and dried oregano. Simply skip adding the feta cheese in the salad and you have a vegan keto alternative. The best part? So easy to make!
