Fresh Mediterranean Salad

I love fresh salads, the more toppings and textures the better. It eliminates the need for dressing!
Jeanne Call

Start with a bed of spring greens.
Add chopped fresh tomato
        3-4 baby sweet peppers
        some chopped red onion (sometimes I will lightly saute it so it doesn't have quite as strong a flavor)
       1/2 avocado, diced
       5-6 olives (green or kalamata)
       a couple tablespoons of feta or fresh parmesan cheese
       some chopped almonds
   Then lastly, lightly sprinkle with lemon juice--not too much.

If you want to make a meal out of it, add some protein, ex--a couple hard boiled eggs or some grilled chicken.
