Low Carb Greek Salad. With a quick look at the list of ingredients, this is one terrific dish of flavor. Can easily be eaten for lunch or as a light dinner and if you don’t have or have access to Halloumi Cheese then Feta is a great substitute. This low carb Greek salad is a keeper and to enhance it even more, top it with pulled chicken.
