Veggies
Our Greek salad includes a healthy dose of lettuce, onions, tomatoes, and cucumbers. These vegetables are low-calorie and nutrient-dense and are great additions to your diet. Salad greens have significant amounts of Vitamins A and C, potassium, and iron. They also contain antioxidants that protect your health and reduce your risk of heart disease and cancer. Tomatoes also provide you with vitamin A and C, while cucumbers are a great source of potassium and are very low in calories.
Olives
Olives are a signature part of a Greek salad, and they are a healthy source of unsaturated fat. A diet of healthy unsaturated fats may help reduce your risk of heart disease, and can even help lower your blood cholesterol. However, they are high in sodium so a serving size should be around five olives.
Feta Cheese
Feta cheese is another nutritious topping, as it includes healthy amounts of protein, calcium, riboflavin, and phosphorus, to name a few. The cheese is lower in fat and calories than aged cheeses and contains more vitamins than most other cheeses. Since it is a good source of calcium, it has shown to have positive effects on bone health. A few other benefits of feta cheese include boosting your immune system, maintaining a healthy guy with helpful probiotics, preventing headaches, and preventing degenerative eye disease.
