Ingredients

  • 8 thin stripes cooked bacon crumbled
  • 1 large avocado peeled, pitted and chopped
  • 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes halved or quartered
  • 1/2 English cucumber chopped
  • 1/2 medium red onion thinly sliced
  • 1/2 bell pepper (any color) chopped
  • 1/3 cup Kalamata olives
  • 3 oz (85g) Feta cheese cut into cubes

Greek dressing ingredients:

  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 garlic clove pressed or minced
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1 large lemon juiced
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil extra virgin
  • sea salt and fresh ground black pepper

Instructions

  • To cook the bacon, preheat your oven to 350F/180C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the bacon strips on a single layer onto your prepared baking sheet, making sure they don't overlap. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes to 15 minutes, or until crispy. Remove from the oven and transfer to a paper towel to drain the excess fat.
  • While the bacon is cooking in the oven, start preparing all veggies and place them into a large salad bowl.
  • Add crumbled bacon, Kalamata olives and feta cheese.
  • Add all dressing ingredients to a mason jar and shake to combine. 
  • Just before serving, drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine. Enjoy!
