I just gotta say we <3 this mouth-watering Mediterranean Grilled Chicken Salad THM S, KETO so much!

I’m not sure if it’s the juicy cucumbers, the succulent tomatoes, tangy olives or satisfying portion of grilled chicken but… Oh yeah! It’s all of those and a quick easy sauce that brings it all together deliciously.

It also keeps well in the fridge for another meal on the run. 

The quick and easy dressing is a snap to put together and it is so very light, tangy and delicious.

I try to keep the ingredients on hand to throw this salad together these days for a cool refreshing summer lunch or supper.

You can place the salad in the fridge to chill and marinate before serving, this will enhance the flavors, but is not required.

The traditional red wine vinegar is so good in it but apple cider vinegar is also really good too so whichever you have will work.  It’s just a matter of personal taste preference but the ACV is a little less on the carbs. 

 

This tangy, Mediterranean salad dressing is one of my new favorites. Here are some of my other tasty on plan dressings:

This Low Carb Ranch Dressing is one of the most popular recipes on my blog.

The Thousand Island Dressing is a ringer for your favorite salad bar TI dressing but mine is sugar-free! (Update this one soon to make prep even easier).

Love this Low Carb Creamy Italian Dressing!

Try this warm and wonderful Chipotle Ranch Dressing too.

Love a fresh Italian fresh tomato dressing? This Zesty Tomato Vinaigrette Dressing will hit the spot.

If you’re on the Trim Healthy Mama plan you should know that Admins have approved this dish as a Light S if you only use half the olives called for in the recipe.

Personally I would use more cucumber if you do that but it will still be super filling.

So if you’re looking to “lighten up” your regular THM S and low carb meals by adding more healthy fats this salad will really do the trick and it is so satisfying!
