Lower in calories and fat, or more budget-friendly.

Trim off the edge of the romaine lettuce, slice in half lengthwise, and cut into thin ribbons.

Rinse the romaine in a salad spinner and spin to remove excess moisture.

Slice the green bell pepper into strips and create a checkerboard pattern.

Cut the red onion into quarter moons by slicing off the stem side and then slicing down without cutting through the root.

Chop the cucumbers into quarters and measure out 1 cup.

Halve the cherry tomatoes and measure out 1 cup.

Slice the kalamata olives in half and measure out 1/2 cup.

Drain and rinse 1 cup of chickpeas under cold water.

Cut the feta cheese into hearty chunks from a block.

Make the dressing in a mason jar: combine crushed garlic, oregano, sea salt, black pepper, dijon mustard, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, and olive oil. Shake to combine.

In a large bowl, layer the romaine, bell peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes, chickpeas, olives, red onion, and feta cheese.

Drizzle dressing over the salad just before serving and toss gently to combine.
